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.[1]
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.[2]
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.[3]
