Helen Richardson-Walsh will be part of the commentary team for the Rabo EuroHockey Championships in Amsterdam.

With many of the days sold out EuroHockey are delighted to announce that hockey fans who won’t make it to the amazing event in Amsterdam will be able to watch the games either on TV or online via their new Hockey Channel.

Nick Irvine ‘the voice of hockey’ who is leading the team of commentators at the Rabo EuroHockey Championships said:

“These are exciting times for European Hockey and what better way to showcase those strengths than staging the Rabo EuroHockey Championships in Amsterdam? Top teams deserve a great stage and the newly revamped Wagener Stadium – packed with true hockey fans – will provide just the backdrop to bring out the very best in our stars . I am excited too about our commentary team which will see Kate and Helen Richardson Walsh joining me for the women’s games while Simon Mason and Todd Williams will cover the men’s tournament. We can’t wait and we hope that you can join us . You won’t be disappointed.”

Tune in at 8pm tonight to see the first match of the women’s tournament where hosts Netherlands take on Spain. 

The men’s tournament begins at 5pm on the 19th August where Belgium play against Austria.
