UL coach is taking cautious approach

UNIVERSITY of Limerick go into the semi-finals of the ESB Women’s National Cup this evening as the red hot favourites to retain the title they won last year. Since then they have won just about everything and are already defending their SuperLeague title from the front

Coach Tony Hehir knows nothing can be taken for granted in the cup so it’s hardly surprising he is taking a cautious approach.

“You never know with the cup. It depends on who performs best on the weekend,” he insisted. “It is so different for us this time around. Last year nobody expected us to do anything. Now everyone expects us to win and the girls expect a lot of themselves. But, make no mistake about it, UL are the team to beat.
