title: 2022 Men's EuroHockey Junior Championship
text: # 2022 Men's EuroHockey Junior Championship
  
  The 2022 Men's EuroHockey Junior Championship was the 20th edition of the Men's EuroHockey Junior Championship, the biennial international men's under-21 field hockey championship of Europe organised by the European Hockey Federation. The top five teams qualified for the 2023 Men's FIH Hockey Junior World Cup.
  
  It was held alongside the women's tournament in Ghent, Belgium from 24 to 30 July 2022. The tournament was originally scheduled to be held in Wavre but a venue change was required due to the initial venue not being ready in time due to flooding.
  
  The Netherlands won a record-extending tenth title by defeating the defending champions Germany 3–1 in the final. The hosts Belgium won the bronze medal by defeating Spain 3–1.
  
  ## Qualified teams
