About Field Hockey in Odense
One club plays field Hockey in Odense: Hockeyklubben Odin.
Hockeyklubben Odin trains at Hjalleseskolen, Solbærvej 5, 5260 Odense S on Tuesdays. Teams include Ladies Team and Men's Team. Hockeyklubben Odin is a field hockey club in Odense, founded in 1939 as a breakaway from Odense Hockey Club. Since 1978 it has been based at Hjalleseskolen in southern Odense, where it opened an artificial-grass home pitch in 2000 and runs its own clubhouse.
Odense is compact, so almost everything on this page is a bike ride from the centre, and the clubs are used to students and people here for a few years.
The outdoor season runs spring and autumn, with indoor hockey filling the winter months in a hall.
Danish sport is organised in foreninger — member-run clubs rather than commercial gyms. You pay a kontingent, usually once or twice a year, and that membership is what gives you training, coaching and a place in the club. A prøvetræning — a trial session — comes first, and it costs nothing.

Training times and free trial sessions
The first session is always free, and you do not need to speak Danish or have played before.
Good to know
Do I need to speak Danish?
No. You book in English, your confirmation email is in English, and every club listed here has signed up to a platform whose whole purpose is welcoming people who are new to Denmark. Training itself may still be in Danish — say that you are new and people switch.
Is the first session really free?
Yes. A trial session booked here costs nothing. You are not signing up for a membership by booking one, and nobody asks for card details.
What should I bring?
Sportswear, shin protection if you already own some, and trainers or turf shoes. Clubs usually have a spare stick for a first session.
What happens after I book?
You get a confirmation email, and the club is told that you are coming. If you need to change the date or cancel, the email has a link for both.
Can I bring someone with me?
Yes. You can add one guest when you book, and they get their own invitation by email.
How does membership work in a Danish club?
Danish clubs are foreninger — member-run associations, not commercial gyms. After the free trial you join by paying a kontingent, usually once or twice a year, and that is what covers training and coaching for the season.
When can I start?
The outdoor season runs spring and autumn, with indoor hockey filling the winter months in a hall.
Which areas does this page cover?
Odense is compact enough that most clubs are a bike ride from the centre, and it has the widest spread of sports on Funen. It is also a student city, so clubs are used to people who arrive for a few years rather than a lifetime.
