Under 12s : Sligo Trip 2012
We are currently planning a trip to Sligo for our Under 12 group in February (24th to 26th). The numbers that we can manage on the trip depend on the number of available coaches/managers/parents who are prepared to travel in a supervisory capacity. A form has been emailed out to all U12s and girls are asked to register by Sunday 15th January. MHC Under 12 Tour 2012 Application Form
Players who travel to Sligo are also expected to be available to host Yeats HC on morning of 11th March (provide refreshments!).
Dates for Your Diary
Irish Hockey will be hosting a mens Olympic Qualifying Tournament from 10th to 18th March in UCD. It would be extremely worthwhile taking some time out to go along and support the Irish men at this event.
For the more adventurous… the Irish ladies (including U12 coach Shirley McCay) will be competing for a place in London 2012 from 17th to 25th March in Antwerp, Belgium.
