The 2025 Men's Pan American Cup was the seventh edition of the Men's Pan American Cup, the quadrennial international men's field hockey championship of the Americas organised by the Pan American Hockey Federation. The tournament was held alongside the women's tournament at the Cancha Celeste in Montevideo, Uruguay from 24 July to 3 August 2025.[1]

Argentina were the three-time defending champions and defended their title with a win over the United States.[2] As a result, they qualified for the 2026 Men's FIH Hockey World Cup in the Netherlands and Belgium. The next three best ranked teams qualified for the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.[3]

Qualification

The tournament included eight teams: the six highest ranked teams from the 2022 Pan American Cup, the host country if not already qualified, and the winner from the 2024 Pan American Challenge.[4]

Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Mexico and the United States qualified from the 2022 Pan American Cup. Uruguay qualified as host country as they did not qualify via the Pan American Cup. Finally, Trinidad and Tobago qualified as the winners from the 2024 Pan American Challenge.[5]
