The current coach is Lucas Rey, who was appointed after Mariano Ronconi let go after the 2024 Summer Olympics. The team is currently fourth in the FIH World Rankings.
''Los Leones (The Lions)'' are the only team of the Americas to win a gold medal at the Olympic Games. They achieved this after defeating Belgium 4–2 in the final at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rio2016.com/en/news/rio-2016-olympic-hockey-bronze-gold-medal-matches |title=Argentina beat Belgium to win first Olympic Games men's hockey gold medal |access-date=21 August 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160826094914/https://www.rio2016.com/en/news/rio-2016-olympic-hockey-bronze-gold-medal-matches |archive-date=26 August 2016 }}</ref> Argentina's Olympic gold-winning coach is Carlos Retegui.
Argentina has appeared in every Hockey World Cup, since the first edition in 1973, except the 1998 edition. They won the bronze medal in 2014, their best position in the tournament. They also obtained a bronze medal at the 2008 Hockey Champions Trophy and a silver medal at the 2016–17 Hockey World League.
At a continental level, Argentina is the most winning team in the Americas, having dominated most tournaments they played, including four gold medals at the Pan American Cup and eleven gold medals at the Pan American Games.
In November 2015 Argentina reached a historic 5th place in the FIH World Rankings, only to be surpassed after their Olympic gold medal by reaching 1st place in April 2017.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.fih.ch/events/hockey-world-league/2017-men-hockey-world-league-semi-final-london-eng/news/fih-confirms-final-line-ups-for-men-s-hockey-world-league-semi-finals|title=FIH confirms final line-ups for men's Hockey World League Semi-Finals|access-date=3 April 2017|date=3 April 2017}}</ref>
==History== The team won the bronze medal at the 2014 World Cup, being ranked 11th in the FIH World Rankings. They also won the bronze medal at the 2008 Champions Trophy, during Carlos Retegui's first period as a coach.
In 2013, during the Hockey World League Semifinals in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, the team along with coach Carlos Retegui decide to name themselves ''Los Leones'' (The Lions), matching the nickname chosen by the women's team at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
Argentina didn't have great performances at the Summer Olympics until they won the gold medal at the 2016 edition by defeating Belgium 4–2, when they became the first national hockey team to win that prize for their country.
