The ENGLAND AGE GROUP squads are the pinnacle of the England Hockey TALENT SYSTEM and assessment includes: * Players from a current or previous ENGLAND AGE GROUP programme may be invited to


assessment in September, based on our insight from the previous programme.   * Players who are MEMBERS OF A TALENT ACADEMY will have the opportunity to be selected for the TALENT ACADEMY


FESTIVAL , where scouts and EAG coaches will be in attendance. Selected players will be invited for further assessment in September.   * Players who are NOT MEMBERS OF A TALENT ACADEMY may


be put forward for an evidence-based OPEN NOMINATION by a club, school or county coach. The nomination process will open in April and will be advertised on the England Hockey website and


social media channels.  * Players taken forward from Open Nominations will be invited to attend OPEN TRIALS in July and August. Players will receive direct communication once the nomination


window has closed.
