The Euro Hockey League 2009/2010 was the third season of the Euro Hockey League, which is the most important club tournament in European field hockey. The competition is organised jointly by the European Hockey Federation and Dutch Media and Marketing agency Pro Sport, with Dutch Bank ABN AMRO being the presenting sponsor of the tournament. The competition witnessed five rounds taking place at four locations, with Rounds 1.1 and 1.2 (Pool Stages) taking place at Real Club de Polo de Barcelona and St Germain, (Paris). HC Rotterdam in the Netherlands hosted Rounds 2 & 3 (KO16 / KO8) of the competition, which are in the "Knock Out" format. The Semi Finals and Finals were also played in the Netherlands, with Amsterdam H&BC's Wagener Stadium being the venue. UHC Hamburg of Germany were the winners of the 2009 / 2010 competition. It was their second success in the tournament following winning the trophy in 2007 / 2008 and a second-place finish in 2008 / 2009.
Round 1 - the group stages of the tournament - took place at two locations, with Real Club de Polo de Barcelona (Spain) and Saint Germain HC (Paris, France) each hosting four pools of three teams. The teams needed to finish in the top two places in their respective Pools to qualify for the first of the knock-out rounds, known as KO16. Five points were awarded for a win, with a draw earning two points and one point going to a team that lost by less than three goals.
