Sportvereniging Kampong Hockey (Dutch: [ˈkɑmpɔŋ], Javanese: [ˈkɑmpuŋ]), also known as SV Kampong or simply Kampong, is a Dutch professional field hockey club based in Utrecht. It was founded in 1902, making it the second oldest hockey club in the Netherlands.[1][2]

Both the men's and the women's 1st XI compete in the Hoofdklasse, the country's top-tier league. The men's team won the play-off final in the 2023-24 season after finishing 3rd in the regular season. They lost the 2023–24 Men's Euro Hockey League final to Pinoké.

Etymology

The term 'kampong' / ꦏꦩ꧀ꦥꦸꦁ (kampung, Javanese pronunciation: ['kɑmpuŋ]) is Javanese in origin and means "village". The founders of the club lived in the Zeeheldenbuurt, which was nicknamed 'kampong' for its many inhabitants who had served in the Netherlands Armed Forces in the Dutch East Indies.[3]
