Hockey India League 2026 Squads: Check updated full teams in women's HIL

Agustina Gorzelany became the most expensive player in the Women’s HIL 2026 sold for INR 42 lakhs.

The Women’s Hockey India League auction took place in New Delhi on Wednesday, September 24, after the men’s HIL auction. Four teams, namely, Soorma Hockey Club, Ranchi Royals, Shrachi Bengal Tigers, and SG Pipers, were the four franchises.

The Rooyals have replaced last season’s champions Odisha Warriors, who pulled out of the second edition of the Women’s Hockey India League. A host of players went under the hammer in the auction, with Agustina Gorzelany being sold to Shrachi Rarh Bengal Tigers for INR 42 Lakhs as the costliest player.

Granatto Maria Jose (INR 34 lakhs) and Valentina Raposo Ruiz de los Llanos (INR 30 lakhs) were sold to Soorma Hockey Club and Shrachi Rarh Bengal Tigers, respectively. Indian midfielder Monika earned her maiden HIL contract of INR 15 lakhs and will ply her trade for Delhi SG Pipers in the upcoming season.
