Major achievements in field hockey by nation

This is a list of countries according to the best position achieved by athletes of these nations at major world tournaments in field hockey and indoor field hockey. Aside from the best results achieved at the World Cup for each variation, also included are results from the Summer Olympic Games, the Champions Trophy, the Summer Universiade, the World League and the World Games. Medals earned by athletes from defunct NOCs or historical teams have been merged with the results achieved by their immediate successor states, as follows: Russia inherits medals from the Soviet Union; Serbia inherits medals from Yugoslavia; Czech Republic inherits medals from Czechoslovakia; and Germany inherits medals from West Germany. Medals earned by teams from England are merged with results from Great Britain. Results achieved in youth, junior or U20 events were not considered for the making of this table, neither were para adaptations of hockey.
