Nominations for the 2025 England Hockey Awards are now open

The England Hockey Awards presented by Notts Sport nominations are now open for you to recognise your heroes from across hockey.
The awards give hockey lovers from across the country a unique opportunity to gather, reflect upon, and celebrate the achievements of clubs, volunteers, officials, coaches, and players over the past year.
The 2025 England Hockey Awards presented by Notts Sport will be held on Saturday 7 June 2025 at the Athena in Leicester.
Last year's awards was a fantastic evening that saw Macclesfield 1s win Men's Team of the Year while Kirkby Lonsdale 1s won Women's Team of the Year. It was South Berkshire HC that took Club of the Year on the night in recognition of their work on and off the pitch and Newport HC won Emerging Club of the Year after seeing a huge increase in their membership.
