Heerhugowaard Hockey Tournament
The latest edition of this international mixed field hockey tournament starts on Friday of the Easter weekend in Heerhugowaard (Holland), a town close to Amsterdam and only 20 minutes away from the sea. This traditional recreational tournament is well known over the country and famous for its good combination of hockey pleasure and outstanding parties. Teams of 8 take to the pitch but you would be wise to bring severeal substitutes!
After the welcome at 7pm and some soup/sandwiches, you will play one hockey match. Then, the Friday night party starts and you will continue the tournament on Saturday morning after your breakfast. At the end of the day, we have a good dinner to be well prepared for the big Saturday night party with a drive-inn show and probably a live band! On Sunday, the last matches are played and the traditional beer relay race is being held. The tournament closes with the prize distribution. The real die-hards can stay Sunday night to drink some more beers in a calmer atmosphere.
