Hockey arrived in Chile in the mid-20th century. Chile has never qualified for the Hockey World Cup until 2021, but it has had success at the youth level, as in Versailles 1979. In the Pan American Games, Chile has been present in all years except the year 1967, obtaining a 3rd-place finish in 1983, 2007, 2011 and 2015. By reaching the final of the 2022 Men's Pan American Cup, they qualified for the 2023 World Cup where they will be making their World Cup debut.[2]
