The nominations for the EuroHockey Institute coaching and umpiring programmes are now open for the 2026 period.
On the umpiring front, nominations are sought from member national associations for the Umpires for Nations (U4N) and Umpires for Europe (U4E) programmes. These are key developmental courses, designed to aid umpires on their journey from the national to the international stage.
The Coaches for Europe (C4E) and Top Coaching Programmes (TCP) are also open for nominations, targeting high level coaches aiming to elevate their knowledge in elite learning environments.
Joining these courses comes at a particularly exciting time. In the past year, the EuroHockey coaching committee embarked on a process to restructure the EuroHockey Institute’s coaching pillar, resulting in greater focus on the grassroots and a renewed approach to these central C4E and TCP courses.

The deadline for these nominations is Tuesday, September 30th at 18.00 CET.
