The U.S. women's field hockey team returns to the Olympics for the first time since Rio 2016 after they finished second at the FIH Qualifier tournament in India, pulling off upsets over both India and Japan.

Field hockey will be played at the Yves du Manoir Stadium with games beginning on July 27 and the gold medal game taking place Aug. 9.

The U.S. women's field hockey team have medaled just once before at the Olympics with a bronze in the 1984 Los Angeles Games. Team USA will face some tough competition in Paris against Argentina, Australia, Great Britain, South Africa and Spain.

The Netherlands are defending Olympic champions and heavy favorites to win gold again.

Amanda Golini and Ashley Hoffman will co-captain Team USA. Both players won bronze at the 2019 Pan American Games.

Kelsey Bing will be in goal and is a 2016 Women's Junior Pan American Games silver medalist and 2019 Pan American Games bronze medalist. Twenty-year-old Abby Tamer is also a player to watch; she helped lead America to a silver medal at the 2023 Pan American Games.

Here's all you need to know to catch the U.S. women's field hockey team in action.
