Jamaica's team has settled in Oman ahead of the FIH Men's Hockey 5s World Cup which gets underway on Sunday.

President of the Jamaica Hockey Federation (JHF) Fabian Stewart who travelled ahead of the main delegation to sort out logistics, is pleased with the arrangements that have been put in place. Jamaica will play in Pool "B" alongside Egypt, India and Switzerland.

They’ll open against Egypt at 1:30 Sunday morning Jamaica time before facing Switzerland seven hours later and India in the last group game at 11:00 pm Jamaica time also on Sunday.

The top two teams from each group will advance to the quarter finals.
