How does the Expression of Interest process work for Talent Centres?
Each year England Hockey will open Expressions of Interest for clubs to complete, this window will stay open for around 6 weeks.
Once clubs complete the Expression of Interest form the England Hockey Talent team will complete a robust internal review across a series of principles aligned with our talent strategy with input from other relevant stakeholders such as the England Hockey Area Chairs.
The Expression of Interest form for 2024 has now closed. It reopens every year in April and closes yearly in July.
