Sixteen European teams compete in València for the continental under-21 hockey title.
From July 26 to August 1, 2026, València will become the epicenter of European hockey with the celebration of the EuroHockey U21 Championships, in both men's and women's categories.
A double event bringing together 16 national teams, set to take place at the Virgen del Carmen-Beteró municipal sports facilities.
The European Federation has confirmed València as the host city, and it is no coincidence.
This will be the sixth time the city hosts a EuroHockey tournament, consolidating its position as one of the great European venues for this sport.
Competing in the men's tournament will be Austria, Belgium, England, Spain, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, while the women's category will feature Belgium, England, Spain, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Scotland, and Wales.
Top-tier hockey, high-level matches, and plenty of talent in action.
What's at stake?
The Men's U21 national team is defending the title won in Terrassa after defeating the Netherlands, while the women's team will look to relive the epic story experienced in Beteró in 2019 when they were crowned European champions after a heart-stopping final decided in a shoot-out.
If you love hockey and tournaments where the future of Spanish sport is being forged, this is a top-notch plan for which you need to get tickets.
