The conclusion of the Division ‘C’ matches saw Hockey Himachal from Pool A and Assam Hockey from Pool B earning their promotion to Division 'B' after leading their respective pools.
Assam Hockey's triumph over Telangana Hockey was bolstered by the outstanding performances of Ritika Tigga (3’, 14’, 58’), Jyoshna Ekka (9, 52’), and captain Roshni Burh (54’). Despite commendable efforts from Anu Kumari (46’) and A Varshitha (22’), Telangana could not change the outcome of the match.
In another Division ‘C’ clash, Goans Hockey initially took the lead with an early goal from Vaydande Bhumika Bhima (5’), but ultimately fell 1-4 to Hockey Jammu & Kashmir. The winning team saw goals from Akshra Dutta (9’, 46’), Kumari Shivani (23’), and Maniksha Devi (59’).
In Division ‘B’ matches, victories were also recorded by Chhattisgarh Hockey, Manipur Hockey, and Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu Hockey against Hockey Unit of Tamil Nadu, Hockey Karnataka, and Kerala Hockey, respectively.
After a scoreless first half, Chhattisgarh Hockey’s Dubee Rawat (36’) broke the deadlock, followed by teammate Shyamlee Ray (43’). Although Hockey Unit of Tamil Nadu's captain, Jovina Defny Mj (59’), attempted to rally her team, they lost 2-1.
Manipur Hockey's Huidrom Bidyaluxmi Devi scored two quick goals (56’, 57’) to clinch victory against Hockey Karnataka.
In the day’s final match, Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu Hockey showcased their dominance with a 6-1 win over Kerala Hockey, with goals from Manshi Yadav (6’), Riya Gaud (19’), Divya (10’), Mansi Saroj (23’, 60’), and Princi Yadav (47’).
