Paralympics 2026: Full Para Hockey Roster List cover image

Para hockey runs from March 7 to 15 at the 2026 Paralympics in Milan, where the United States will look to win their fifth straight gold medal.

After a thrilling Olympics, the Para hockey tournament gets started at the 2026 Paralympics in Milan on Saturday, March 7.

Eight teams will compete at the Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena from March 7 to 15 in pursuit of a medal.

China, Germany, Italy and the United States are in Group A. Canada, Czechia, Japan and Slovakia are in Group B.

The United States head into the Paralympics searching for their fifth straight gold medal in Para hockey, dating back to 2010 in Vancouver. They also won in Salt Lake City in 2002. With USA's men's and women's teams winning gold in Olympic hockey, the Para hockey squad could complete the ultimate sweep in Milan.

Canada, meanwhile, have earned silver in the last two Paralympics.

The Para hockey tournament is open gender.

Two women are listed on rosters this year: defender Akari Fukunishi of Japan and Michaela Hozakova of Slovakia. That said, Slovakia's national Paralympic committee has yet to confirm Hozakova's presence.

Fukunishi is confirmed to be on Team Japan as the fourth woman to compete in the Para hockey tournament at the Olympics. The first three are Norway's Britt Mjaasund Oeyen (1994, silver medal), Norway's Lena Schroeder (2018) and China's Yu Jing (2022, bronze medal).

Here are the rosters for each club, according to paralympic.org. Each athlete's participation requires confirmation by their respective national Paralympic committee.
