Hockey Dreams Foundation

About Hockey Dreams Foundation

Hockey Dreams Foundation aims to enable a better future through hockey. We do this by developing sustainable hockey communities: the hockey pitch provides a background for local learning opportunities. Coaches and kids from communities with challenging circumstances come together through their shared passion for the hockey sport. Together they play, share, learn and grow. Hockey Dreams Foundation is there to assist youth in realizing their ambitions for a better future. The players and coaches of today, gain the confidence and competences to be the game changers of tomorrow.

A sustainable community We believe in setting up local communities organised by local people. We identify local coaches who eventually set up and manage a local NGO to ease operations in their respective countries. We share our knowledge with them, provide opportunities to continue with their education, and provide equipment. Each coach is assigned a project and responsibilities. All the coaches receive an allowance when they perform their tasks. We find that this is the best way to maintain their commitment and retain their knowledge and skills in the long-term. The coaches choose their successors when a coach spot is available. It is also their responsibility to train their replacements. In this way, the knowledge is transferred from one coach to the next with little intervention from abroad (the headquarters in the Netherlands).

Young professionals Hockey Dreams’ aspiration for local coaches is that they work their way into careers that allow them to provide for their families. The foundation facilitates this by providing opportunities to complete high school, learn the English language, follow computer courses and possibly attend college. We want the coaches also develop personally and become role models because of their exceptional achievements.
