Hockey: Munster game faces administration crisis

Munster Hockey officials have again warned that the sport could grind to a halt in the province if key administration positions go unfilled.

The provincial branch’s AGM in Mitchelstown on Wednesday night ended with eight positions, including the ladies registrar, men’s fixtures secretary and three ladies divisional secretaries, remaining vacant following an absence of nominees.

Prior to this season, the branch spent three months hunting for a new treasurer, secretary and men’s fixtures secretary, with Munster Hockey chairman John Dennis double-jobbing as interim secretary.
