International athlete appearances

England Hockey aims to support the hockey community and promote the sport through athlete appearances.  We receive many requests to support clubs, schools, charities and other events and while we are unable to support all requests for publicity and athlete appearances, we will do our best to facilitate as many as we can. 

 Please note that there is a standard appearance fee of £250 for an in person appearance of up to 2 hours, but we are happy to consider special cases where the fee may not be appropriate. Where a specific athlete is requested, individual fees can be negotiated. There will be no charge for virtual appearances which only require a few minutes of an athlete's time, but where a more significant time commitment is required, an appropriate fee may apply.

If you would like to request an athlete appearance, please click here or email player.appearances@englandhockey.co.uk directly to request a call back to discuss your requirements in more detail. We ask that if possible you be flexible with your appearance dates with the athletes’ training schedules, they have limited availability surrounding training, competitions and recovery.

Signed merchandise

England Hockey receives a large number of requests for signed merchandise and photos for fundraisers, charities and events. Although the NGB has a very limited resource of items and are therefore not able to fulfil all requests, England Hockey are committed to supporting clubs and charities in their fundraising efforts and will do so wherever we are able. Please email player.appearances@englandhockey.co.uk directly with your requests.
