We are HCY

Hockey Club Ypenburg (HCY) is a real family club where children, young people and adults enjoy training and playing together, at their own level. HCY was founded in 2005 and is therefore a young, energetic club. We are proud of our 1000 members who enjoy hockey at different levels. Whether it is performance-oriented or recreational, it is about experiencing maximum enjoyment of the hockey sport through development.


We have 3 Men's teams (H1, H2, Men Under 25), 4 Women's teams (D1, D2, and 2 Women Under 25). Our Men 1 and Women 1 both play third division hockey. A growing number of first and second teams play (national) (sub)top class or first division. We are at least as proud of the large number of broad teams, the 4 Veteran teams (2 Women 30 and 2 Men 45 ) and 7 Trim teams that complete the club. Around all these teams there are many committed volunteers who keep the club successful, pleasant and running.


HCY feels responsible to contribute to the development and education of the youth. At the association friendships are formed, children learn to deal with differences, they gain self-confidence by celebrating successes together and they learn to deal with setbacks and disappointment. Older youth develop into examples for the youngest youth and are involved in the development in training, coaching and arbitration of the youngest youth.


HCY wants to offer a social, safe place. A place where people feel at home and welcome, that radiates hospitality and where people treat each other with respect and in a sporting manner. Where people address each other on maintaining and adhering to shared norms and values, according to the generally accepted Code of Conduct. A club that we are proud of and where everyone puts the club's interests first in a neutral way. We have to do it together: HCY is a club for and by its members.


This vision has been translated into a number of core values:
  • TOGETHER – diversity and inclusion, everyone participates and works together
  • NEUTRAL – club interests first, no conflict of interest
  • BROADLY SUPPORTED – giving substance to the club vision with attention to all members
  • TRUST – in each other and in each other's tasks and responsibilities
  • FUN – Everyone can enjoy playing hockey & HCY is more than just hockey


Within HCY we recognize the following levels:
  • Performance hockey: The first and second teams strive for the highest possible level
  • Recreational hockey: In addition to level, social aspects are also taken into account when dividing teams


HCY has 3 full artificial grass fields (2 of which are water fields) and a practice field. For the indoor hockey season, there are concrete plans for an air dome on field 2 of HCY.
