Ladies 1st XI Playoff
Support needed!! Two weeks ago the club was notified by the LHA that the ladies 1sts were to participate in a playoff to remain in Division 2 next season. The ladies 1sts finished the season in an exceptionally tight league, in 10th place resulting in automatic relegation. However, due to a series of events including EYHL promotion, and the merger of Hermes and Monkstown, the girls have been handed a surprise lifeline two months after the regular season finished.
They face Suttonians in a playoff game in Botanic Hockey Club at 4pm this Saturday the 28th of May. We have spoken in the past two AGMs about the importance of supporting and developing our ladies side to ensure the continuo growth of our club. All available support for this crucial game will be greatly appreciated!
