The field of dreams is ready

A home for field hockey in Sierra Leone

Thanks to your help we were able to construct the Field of Dreams in Freetown in December 2022. The pitch finally enables all teams to train and play matches on an appropriate surface that they can access without any restrictions. We recorded video logs every day to share the progress.

Will you lead the next training camp?

The pitch is there. Now it is time to use it to the fullest. You can support the local teams by organising training camps to share your passion and expertise as well as to introduce children and young adults from neighbouring villages to the game. We encourage you to come with a friend or as a small group. Reach out to us for more information.

The Field of Dreams pitch

A sports campus to unite hockey in Sierra Leone

The Field of Dreams offers a central place for field hockey in Sierra Leone where field hockey players can improve their skills  and regular competitive matches between clubs are held. Constructed in December 2022, it is also a place where players learn important values of cohesion and togetherness and get a balance in their daily life.

About the Sierra leone Hockey trust

From hockey players for hockey players

The Sierra Leone Hockey Trust was founded in 2019 by a group of former hockey players who played hockey together at University. We support local communities in Sierra Leone that have been playing field hockey since 2015 with equipment, infrastructure foundations and knowledge transfer from more experienced hockey players.
