The 2017 Men's Pan American Cup was the fifth edition of the Men's Pan American Cup , the quadrennial men's international field hockey championship of the Americas organized by the Pan American Hockey Federation . It was held between 4 and 12 August 2017 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania , United States, simultaneously with the women's tournament .[ 1]
The tournament doubled as the qualifier for two major international tournaments: the winner qualified directly to the 2018 World Cup , and the two teams not qualifying through the 2018 South American Games or the 2018 Central American and Caribbean Games qualified for the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima , Peru. Also, the top 6 teams qualified for the next Pan American Cup , while the bottom two need to compete in the Pan American Challenge.
Argentina won the tournament for the third time after defeating Canada 2–0 in the final.[ 2] As they had already secured an automatic berth at the 2018 World Cup thanks to a second-place finish at the World League Semifinal in London , England, their quota was immediately awarded to first reserve team New Zealand .[ 3]
Qualification The top six nations at the 2013 Pan American Cup qualified directly with the remaining two spots were assigned to the first and second-placed team at the 2015 Pan American Challenge, which was held in Chiclayo , Peru.[ 4] [ 5]
