Tickets go on sale this Friday for England’s international teams’ first matches in front of home crowds since 2018, when the FIH Hockey Pro League returns in May and June of this year.
We are delighted to confirm that international hockey will return to the Twickenham Stoop – home of Harlequins Rugby Club – when England host the Netherlands. There will be two days of action at The Stoop on what is the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee weekend of Sat 4 & Sun 5 June, with a double bank holiday on the Thursday and Friday. England’s women and men host the Dutch in back-to-back double headers and it’s set to be the biggest hockey weekend this country has seen since London 2012.
We also have three more weekends of top quality hockey at Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in May and June, ensuring a great summer for the sport.
Both of the reigning Olympic Champions are coming to London, with Belgium’s men travelling to Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre for the final matches of the campaign on 18 & 19 June, two weeks after the reigning women’s Champions The Netherlands come to The Stoop. With clashes against France, Spain, South Africa and China across the last two weekends of May, there are lots of opportunities to see world class hockey on home soil.
Tickets for all matches will go on general sale at midday this Friday 18 March. For a limited period a Hockey Family discount code will be available to save up to 20% on tickets compared to General Sale prices. More details to follow on Friday.
Entrants to the 2020 ticket ballot have been contacted with the opportunity to purchase in an exclusive window this week.
