your stay

Our travel partner

We’ve joint forces with travel partner The Hockey Department. This company is specialised in tailor-made hockey trips: tours, tournaments and training camps for teams, schools and national federations. The company’s team consists of people with almost all the field hockey medals you can win. From Olympic and World Cup gold to European silver and Dutch, Spanish, Belgium and UK league winners led by former Dutch international Sander van der Weide (275 caps, triple Olympian, world champion).

The Hockey Department is also travel partner for the 2026 WMH World Cup events in Brasschaat (Belgium) en Breda (Netherlands).

SPORT FOR EVERYONE, GEAR FOR ALL

We are thrilled to announce that the official charity of the World Cup Masters Hockey 2026 in Rotterdam is Sportspullenbank. Sports are about so much more than just physical exercise, it’s about belonging, feeling good, and staying fit. Sportspullenbank collects sports gear and equipment for individuals and families who don't have the financial means to purchase it themselves.

The World Cup Masters Hockey Rotterdam is proud to support this fantastic initiative because we firmly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to play sports and participate!
