Hockey: Quins look to lay down league marker against holders UCD
It means Cork Harlequins’ women and Cork C of I’s men will get their campaigns underway with some confidence; as Munster’s sole challengers, they can push for the play-off places.
Quins have the toughest possible start, travelling to Belfield to play champions UCD in a repeat of last season’s Irish Senior Cup final. The visitors have significant additions, with former international Julia O’Halloran a marquee signing, while Emily O’Leary returns to Munster after a spell with Ulster Elks.
