Premier Division phase 2 fixtures now live
The fixtures for Phase 2 of the England Hockey League Premier Division are now live.
The fixtures have been scheduled to come after the World Cup Qualifier tournaments in March.
At the end of Phase 2 the teams finishing top of the Top 6s will qualify for Europe in 2026-27.
Phase 3 will feature the top six plus to the top two teams in the lower 6 in two pools of four leading the league semi-finals and finals.
The fixtures for Phase 3 are scheduled for 18,19 & 25 April for the championships play-offs with finals 2-3 May at Surbiton Hockey Club. The fixtures for the relegation play-offs are scheduled for 18 April, 25 April, 2 May.
Please note: In line with league regulations, where possible teams who had five home games in Phase 1 have three in this Phase and fixtures are a reverse of those in Phase 1. However, it is not possible for all of this to occur, eg if four teams in a section all played five home games in Phase 1, or a team may have played the five teams, they face in Phase 2 at home and that would leave them with five away games. In these circumstances, in line with the regulation, preference is given to teams based on positions at the end of Stage 1.
