The Paris Games will see 16 men’s teams from six confederations go for Olympics glory, with 12 teams in the women’s tournament.
Canada are the defending women’s champions but Spain have lifted the World Cup to emerge as one of the favourites. The United States, meanwhile, will be looking for redemption after their humbling in Australia last year.
