Back to business as Bandon bid to rock Rovers

THE hockey season kicks back into gear tomorrow with the Irish Senior Cup looming into view for most clubs, after an enforced month-long absence.

The majority of squads have not seen any action since mid-December, with most pitches rendered frozen write-offs by the extreme weather, a scenario which increases the potential for shocks in the cup’s opening round.

Bandon are a side that relish the challenge of taking the big boys down a peg or two, and usually raise their game accordingly.
