Sad news
All at TRRHC would like to pass their condolences to the family of Niall Roche following his recent passing. Niall was a stalwart of Leinster and Irish hockey, umpiring mens div 2 up until recently, while also still officiating on technical tables at countless tournaments and matches. This St.Patricks day finals won’t be the same without him watching from the bar. Our thoughts are with his family at this time.
Leinster re-structuring next season
A recent forum held by the LHA outlines the changes that will occur to all leagues next season, assuming the proposed full IHL goes ahead.
For both the mens and ladies senior leagues this year, no relegation will take place. Promotion of 4-5 teams (depending on mens or ladies) will take place in each league to fill the gaps left by those in Div 1 who will be in the new IHL. This means that some of our teams will be promoted next season depending on a top 4-5 finish. This change in structure is obviously dependant on the full IHL commencing as is planned. Further details can be seen at the Hook:
