In July 2017,
Hockey India decided to withdraw both the
men's and
women's national teams from the competition as they estimated the chances of qualifying for the
Summer Olympics to be higher when participating in the
Men's FIH Hockey World League. Hockey India also cited lack of clarity in the ranking system. The International Hockey Federation subsequently invited
Spain instead. Pakistan were suspended in 2019 after they could not play their first three games.
India joined the Pro League from 2020 onwards. In September 2021, both New Zealand and Australia withdrew from the 2021–22 season due to the
COVID-19 pandemic and the travel restrictions coming with it. ;Current teams • • • • • • • • • ;Former teams • (competed in the 2021–22 season) • (competed in the 2021–22 season) • (competed in the 2019, 2020–21, 2022–23 and 2023–24 seasons) • (relegated from 2024–25 season) ==Results==
