The 2018 Women's Hockey Champions Trophy will be the 23rd and last edition of the Hockey Champions Trophy for women. It will be held between 17–25 November 2018 in Changzhou, China.
When the FIH unveiled the event hosts for the 2015–2018 cycle, Argentina was chosen to host this tournament. However, in March 2016, the FIH had to terminate all contractual agreements with Argentina as the Argentine Hockey Confederation was unable to fulfil their contractual obligations in regards to television rights, sponsorship and the hosting of events. Changzhou was announced as the host instead.
Alongside the host nation, the defending champions, the last Olympic, World Cup and World League champions qualify automatically. The remaining spot will be nominated by the FIH Executive Board, making a total of 6 competing teams. If teams qualify under more than once criteria, the additional teams will be invited by the FIH Executive Board as well.
