Great Britain will compete in 16 home matches, eight men’s and eight women’s. Each session will comprise one match for each gender and the games will be played over four bumper weekends of hockey. Three of those weekends will take place at Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, and we are excited to be returning to the Twickenham Stoop for our matches against Argentina.
With two international hockey matches and an electric atmosphere, you will be guaranteed a great day of entertainment. A winner is guaranteed in each match, with penalty shoot-outs to decide the outcome if the scores are level at full time. What’s more, there’ll be plenty of entertainment for all the family including opportunities for children to play on the hallowed pitch, a chance to meet your British hockey heroes, music, food and drink.
New for 2020, each big weekend of hockey has a theme which drives the fun and activities on and off the pitch.
END OF SEASON CLUB PARTY:
Join us for the ultimate end of season party. It’s a weekend geared to celebrate with your club-mates including activity like club mascot races, cross bar challenges, club anthems, club moments of the season and prizes for the best fancy dress.
BIG STADIUM HOCKEY:
Big Stadium Hockey is back for a whole weekend of action-packed hockey at the home of Harlequins, The Twickenham Stoop. Last year with 12,000 fans cheering Great Britain on, the atmosphere was breath-taking. Enjoy live music before and after the games as well as watching the two current Olympic Champions play in hockey’s big festival weekend.
JUNIOR TAKEOVER:
Every trip to the hockey is great for families with young children, but join us to inspire the future of hockey with a weekend dedicated to our junior players from around the country. There will be even more fun for the kids on and off the pitch interaction with the star players and opportunity to develop new skills.
OLYMPIC SEND-OFF:
Great Britain’s Olympic Squads will have been chosen and this is the last chance to see them in action before the Tokyo 2020. A celebration of everything Olympics, with some of our famous gold medal winners in attendance, and the chance to send-off our Olympians in style.
HOCKEY FAMILY PRIORITY WINDOW:
We're giving the Hockey Family the opportunity to access tickets and sit together for all eight sessions before they go on general sale. Not only does this mean you can secure your seats ahead of the crowds to avoid disappointment, but now it’s really easy to sit with your club or group, without one person having to do all the organising and book and pay for all the tickets. We have added a clever new Hockey family Selector tool, which lets you find your club, group, university or Player Pathway centre. By selecting your group, we will then make sure that everyone with the same ticket category is sat together in a block on match day.
