The 2025 Men's EuroHockey Championship will be the twentieth edition of the Men's EuroHockey Championship, the biennial international men's field hockey championship of Europe organised by the European Hockey Federation.

The tournament will be held alongside the women's tournament at the Warsteiner HockeyPark in Mönchengladbach, Germany from 8 to 16 August 2025.[1][2] It will be the third time Mönchengladbach will host the event.

The winner will qualify for the 2026 Men's FIH Hockey World Cup to be held in Wavre, Belgium and Amstelveen, Netherlands.[3] The Netherlands are the two-time defending champions.[4] If Belgium or the Netherlands win this tournament or if these two countries face each other in the final, the highest ranked team will qualify.

Qualification

[edit]

The top six teams from the 2023 edition qualified directly for this edition of the tournament.[5] The last two teams will be the winners of the two sets of EuroHockey Qualifiers taking place in Vienna, Austria and Dublin, Ireland in August 2024.[6][7]
