2013 Hockey India League players' auction

2013 Hockey India League Players' Auction was the auction of players for the first season of the franchise-based field hockey tournament, Hockey India League. Auction was conducted by International Auctioneer Bob Hayton and took place on 16 December at The Lalit Hotel in New Delhi.[1]

A total of 246 players were available for the auction out of which 93 were foreign player and 153 local. Each franchise had a purse of US$ 650,000 to spend in the auction on 24 players (14 Indian and 10 overseas) for a term of 3 years. Minimum base price for an Indian player was US$ 2,800 and for overseas player was US$ 5,000 under which franchise owners could not bid.[1]

Marquee players

Teun de Nooijer (Uttar Pradesh Wizards) is the highest-paid player of the league.

The franchise owners made silent bids for each of the five marquee players before the actual auction begun. Hockey India then revealed which marquee player will lead which franchise based on the maximum bids by all the owners. Each team's marquee player got a contract worth at least 115 per cent of the highest successful bid for a player of that team in the auction if the silent bid is not worth more than this amount.[2]
