2022 EuroHockey Junior Championships – UPDATE

Speaking about the joint hosting of the EuroHockey Junior Championships for men and women in 2022, Serge Pilet, CEO of Hockey Belgium said: “We are really thrilled to be able to organise this major event in Belgium. We constantly try to develop strong national youth teams, to ensure the succession of our Red Lions and Red Panthers. Playing in their own country and in front of their supporters will definitely give a boost to our Junior teams. And what’s more: these European Junior Championships will be the very first event we will host in our brand new regional hockey stadium in Wavre. You can count on it: we will live up to the expectations created by our event organiser’s reputation!”
