Munster up for interpro battle
Munster have regularly been a distant third in this competition, with player population an issue as only five schools — Limerick’s Villiers, Newtown in Waterford and the Cork trio of Bandon Grammar, Ashton, and Midleton — play boys hockey competitively.
The challenge facing coaches Chris Blaney (U18s) and George Blackwell (U16s) is moulding a small but quality pool of talent into a competent unit to put it up to Leinster and Ulster, whom they will both play twice over the weekend at Queens University.
