Field hockey career
Ellen began playing field hockey at the age of seven and in 2002, aged 16 she was selected to play her first senior game for Stichtse Cricket en Hockey Club in Bilthoven and made her debut for the Netherlands women's national field hockey team at age 17 in 2004[4] and has played in 232 matches, scoring 60 goals. She won Olympic gold medals in 2008 and 2012 and a silver medal in 2016.[1]
In August 2005, she became the European champion in Dublin. In December of the same year she won the Champions Trophy in Canberra with the Dutch national women's team. She was a part of the Dutch squads which won the 2006 Women's Hockey World Cup and the 2014 Women's Hockey World Cup. She was also named as the best player of the 2014 Women's Hockey World Cup.
In 2012, Hoog became the first player to decide a major championship match with a penalty shootout, taking the winning shot in the 2012 Summer Olympics semi-final against New Zealand. She repeated this feat in 2016 when she took the winning shot in the 2016 Summer Olympics semi against Germany.
She retired from international duty in 2016. She then later retired from hockey at her club Amsterdamsche Hockey & Bandy Club in May 2017.[citation needed]
