Hockey Sports for Commonwealth Games 2010
The 19th Commonwealth Games at New Delhi, India in 2010 will feature 17 sports disciplines. The Indian game of Kabaddi will be a demonstration game, while triathlon might not be included beecause of lack of a suitable location. Generally, the CWG features, basketball as well, but the Delhi Games organisers have proposed removing it and instead adding archery, tennis, billiards and snookers for men.
Hockey was introduced as early as 1998 in the Kuala Lumpur CWG Games. Both men and women competitions will be held in Delhi 2010.
