Catholic Institute and UCC bid to join top division

While the EY Hockey Leagues could both be decided this weekend, the Munster focus will be on who can potentially join the elite division with UCC’s men and Catholic Institute’s women starting out their play-off journeys.

Both play in five-team round-robin groups at Alexandra College in Dublin, gunning for the one ticket from the wildcard round to the provincial play-offs finals which take place at the Mardyke later this month.

For Insta, there is a definite sense of enormous well-being following Munster Senior Cup and Irish Hockey Trophy success in the last two weeks.
