2026 Vantage National Masters Tournament – Umpire Registrations Now Open
22–28 February 2026 North Harbour Te Whenua Roa ō Kahu
Hockey New Zealand is pleased to announce that the 2026 Vantage National Masters Tournament has received 112 team entries, the highest number in the event’s history. This reflects the continued growth and enthusiasm within the Masters community nationwide.
The scale of entries presents operational challenges, with the five turfs at North Harbour unable to accommodate all required fixtures within standard scheduling parameters.
To successfully deliver a tournament of this size, additional umpires are urgently required.
Umpire Registration
HNZ invites umpires from across the country to register their interest in officiating at the 2026 Masters Tournament.
Registrations can be completed via the Hockey NZ Masters Events page:
