The 2015 Men's EuroHockey Championship was the 15th edition of the men's EuroHockey Nations Championship, the biennial international men's field hockey championship of Europe organised by the European Hockey Federation. It was held from 21 to 29 August 2015 in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London, England.[2]
The Netherlands defeated the defending champions Germany 6–1 in the final to capture their fourth title, while Ireland won their first-ever medal by beating the hosts England 4–2.[1] As the winners, the Netherlands qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
