About

the project

This program is about 10 european partners from various backgrounds teaming up to put together development programmes and toolkits in place to help more ID hockey players to enjoy sports and via this way to learn valuable life skills. The programme will focus on both the development of the players as well as all the staff positions like trainers, umpires, officials, health care experts and more. Besides the official partners we have support from many organizations and experts who offered their help but could not be part of the official consortium. With their expertise and support we are convinced we can deliver on our ambitions and disseminate all outputs among all 43 hockey nations.

Love Is All

inclusion

“Within the hockey family we care about inclusivity as it is part of the foundation of our sport culture. We called the programme Love is All after a song by Roger Glovers (from Deep Purple) who was so kind to allow us to use this song about tolerance and inclusivity as an anthem for our project.

Life is about energy and from experience we know that our ID hockey players have a lot of energy to give all of us. We’re determined to make this project a success and are convinced that it will give ID sports a big boost so more people can enjoy sports in the surroundings of friends and family”
