The Men's FIH Hockey Junior World Cup, formerly known as the Hockey Junior World Cup, is an international field hockey competition organized by the International Hockey Federation (FIH). The tournament was started in 1979. Since 1985 it was held every four years. From 2021 onwards the tournament has been held every two years. Competitors must be under the age of 21 as of December 31 in the year before the tournament is held.
There is also a corresponding event for the women's junior teams. This competition started in 1989 and uses the same format as the men's event.
Five countries have dominated the event's history. Germany is the most successful team, having won the tournament seven times followed by Argentina and India, having won the tournament two times. Australia and Pakistan have each won the tournament once.

The 2013 tournament was held in India from 2 to 17 November 2013. Germany won the final for record 6th time defeating France 5–2.
