IHL qualification the carrot for Quins and UCC
It’s a vital weekend for UCC and Cork Harlequins, who are still battling for the automatic Irish Hockey League qualification spot offered by finishing second in Munster.
Titles for Limerick and Institute
A remarkable weekend in Munster hockey saw Catholic Institute end Cork Harlequins’ 15-year dominance of the women’s league, Quins steal a march on C of I in the men’s title race and Limerick ladies bring home a national title, but there was heartbreak on the national stage as UCC’s men went down by the odd goal in three.
Trio hunting national glory
A potentially memorable weekend lies in store for Munster hockey with three sides seeking maiden Irish cup titles, while there are a slew of pivotal ties as the leagues approach the business end of the season.
