The African Hockey Experience is a unique fundraising trip to one of our communities in Africa. Through the AHX, you can participate in the special exchange between hockey players and people interested in the power of sport. As participant you raise money that goes directly to the projects organised by the coaches you will meet. You personally experience what a difference it makes and what a buzz it creates.

Want to be part of our 2020 trip? Check www.africanhockeyexperience.com! (postponed until further notice)

Sticks (and balls, cones and bibs) are used all the time but are difficult to get locally or to get in affordable bulk. So we are very happy if you donate your old ones!

Where to donate? At several hockey clubs and in several shops you can donate your stick. You can also bring it to us at an event where we’re present or check out the Equipment Initiatives below! And of course, write us if you want to bring it to our office in Amsterdam, or when you want to start a collection point at your club.

• We’re always looking for Event Team Members: as Hockey Dreams we are present at different hockey events and can use your help with for example our hockey game. Interested? Write us at: events@hockeydreams.nl.
• Enthusiastic about what we do and can help us out in any other way? We’re always looking for driven people who love to work with us. Don’t hesitate to contact us. This also goes for internships. If you are motivated, we can talk about the options! Contact us at info@hockeydreams.nl.

We’re on the look out for club ambassador, who are the person-to-go-to for your club in case we have something cool to share with you. The goal is to link your club to our foundation and both benefit from it. For example, your club runs a tournament and would like to link a charity to it. In return, we can organise a game with cool prizes from our brand partners!

Feel like this is something for you? Contact us at events@hockeydreams.nl and let’s find possibilities together 🙂

Hockey Dreams works with companies and organisations who believe in the impact of using sports as a tool for development. And of course in a sustainable way. Our collaborations are of enormous value for the maintenance and growth of the programmes we run, and therefore priceless every single year. So our gratitude goes to the list below. By working with us, our (potential) partners, sponsors and suppliers meet their social responsibility. And that’s an investment for the future.

We’re here to talk about interesting, new and tailor made collaborations. And we sure like to think of a way to works for both parties. Since the start of our foundation, we have seen many creative projects so are happy to share our thoughts with you! Are you up to contribute to our sport for development goals? Drop us a message and we’ll speak soon.

Read here about our partnership with hockey club Phoenix (Dutch).

As a club, you know the importance of quality coaches and trainers for running your club. Will you help us help our coaches? With your support, you can make a lasting impact: the coach can finish secondary school, go to college and follow coaching and umpiring courses, skills that also give confidence off the pitch. The indication for a coach going through the full programme is € 5000-7500 (five to eight years; monthly allowance and his/her education).

Support our vision and want to put our work in the spotlights? You can host an event to raise awareness and funds for our programme. Invite us to your family tournament, your annual final BBQ or the Business league. Contact us and we will explore the options!

Every year, we invite one or two of the most motivated of our coaches for a special internship: the Hockey Dreams Trip. The coaches will come The Netherlands for a few weeks to learn more about hockey club culture here, grow as a coach in the camps of our partner SportWays and share their spirit with the kids and coaches here. All the impressions, drills and games they learn here, they bring back to elevate the hockey in their own community. If you can help with the funding of a trip, the coach can visit your club and give a clinic to your team.

Want to join our mission to enable local learning opportunities through hockey communities? To guarantee sustainability of our programmes and organisation, we are looking for partners who want to support our mission for multiple years.

Our foundation is recognised as an ‘ANBI‘ in the Netherlands (‘Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling’; organisation for public benefit), rendering your financial support deductible from taxable income.

Get in touch with us and let’s create added value for both of our parties!
