KAZA: The Spiti Cup season three is set to return from February 7-11, reaffirming its role as a cornerstone grassroots winter sports initiative in the Himalayas, according to a release.
Held during the region’s harsh winter, the tournament brings together remote villages, transforming frozen landscapes into shared arenas of participation, pride, and collective resilience.
With ice hockey gaining momentum across Spiti and neighbouring valleys, the 2026 edition marks a significant step forward in scale and structure.
The tournament expands to 22 games, up from 18 last season, featuring teams from five zones—Centre, Tod, Sham, Pin, and Lahaul—across Senior Men, Women, and U-18 Boys categories.
Organised in collaboration with the Ice Hockey Association of Lahaul and Spiti (IHAL S), supported by Royal Enfield Social Mission, and held in partnership with the Spiti Administration, the Spiti Cup functions as a community-owned developmental competition.
