Facility setup for the 2026 Hockey World Cup

A lot goes into an international hockey tournament. The basics must be well in order: goals must be sturdy and match-ready, dug-outs must be practical to use and corner flags contribute to a neat and clear field setup. They may not be striking parts of the tournament, but they are important for a well-organised accommodation.

The delivery of these materials contributes to the careful preparation of the 2026 Hockey World Cup in Amstelveen.

Experience with international hockey tournaments

The involvement in the 2026 Hockey World Cup aligns with previous experience with international hockey events. Facility materials were also supplied for the tournament during the 2014 Hockey World Cup in The Hague.

That experience is valuable, because at events at this level the planning, coordination and reliability of materials are important. Materials must be available on time, fit the location and meet the organisation's wishes. This mainly requires a practical approach: preparing well, communicating clearly and making sure the basics are right.

Practical setup of hockey accommodations

When setting up hockey fields, it is not only about supplying products. Their application on location, the planning and the coordination with the parties involved also play a role. Especially at an event like the 2026 Hockey World Cup, it is important that it is clear what is needed and when everything must be ready.

That is why the situation at the accommodation is looked at in advance. Which materials are already present? What needs to be supplemented? When must the hockey goals, dug-outs and corner flags be placed or available? By coordinating this in time, the execution remains manageable and unnecessary delays are prevented.

Collaboration with the KNHB

For the 2026 Hockey World Cup, the materials are being supplied on behalf of the KNHB. The collaboration focuses on the setup of the locations in Amstelveen, including the Wagener Stadium and Oranje's training complex.

In such a project, short lines of communication and clear agreements are important. The materials must be available at the right time and fit well with the setup of the field and the accommodation. The role in this is concrete: ensuring reliable facility materials that contribute to a well-prepared playing environment.

Preparation for the 2026 Hockey World Cup

The 2026 Hockey World Cup in the Netherlands and Belgium is a special moment for the sport of hockey. With the delivery of hockey goals, dug-outs and corner flags, a practical contribution is being made to the setup of the hockey locations in Amstelveen.

The project fits with the daily practice of setting up sports accommodations: supplying materials that are reliable, professional and ready for use. The involvement in the world championship is something to be proud of, but above all a reason to carry out the preparation carefully and soberly.
