The 2019 Women's EuroHockey Championship was the 14th edition of the Women's EuroHockey Nations Championship, the biennial international women's field hockey championship of Europe organised by the European Hockey Federation.

It was held alongside the men's tournament from 17 to 25 August 2019 in Antwerp, Belgium.[1][2] The tournament also served as a direct qualifier for the 2020 Tokyo olympics, with the winner qualifying.

The Netherlands won their tenth overall title after defeating Germany 2–0 in the final.[3] Meanwhile, Spain conquered the bronze medal after a penalty-shootout win over England.[4]
