Read on to find out more about the latest news from UCC Hockey.

Our EY side are heading into a double weekend up North with games against Ards and Pegasus. The team have still to get their first points on the board but it is early days yet. We would like to thank Johnson & Perrott Motor Group who have come on board as our latest partner and sponsor for the EY team.

Division 2 have gotten off to a flying start with over 20 goals in only 3 league games. They look forward to their Irish Junior Cup game against CI Ladies HC on the 26th October up North.

Division 3 and 4 are playing this weekend in the Combined Div 3/4 cup with wins so far. Jim White was appointed coach of the Division 3 side and Callum Griffin was appointed coach of Division 4 side. Aoife Waters will assist Jim as Manager and Roisin Doyle returns this season to manage the Division 4 side. It has been difficult to find coaches and volunteers to help and one of the reasons another women's team was not entered into the Munster League.

The mens side are settling into their routine. With a shakey start the team go into their 3rd match of the season when they play C of I C on Saturday at 4pm. Head Coach, Helen Costello has been putting the men through their paces and we hope this season will help with the continued growth of the men's section. We welcome Conway Solicitors as a new partner of UCC Hockey, they have sponsored the men's kit this season.

Social hockey has attracted huge numbers and recently UCC entered the Student Sport Ireland Mixed Hockey League which took place in UL during the week.

There was a great turn out for the Pink Run on Wednesday morning. If you would like to donate to Breast Cancer Ireland click on the following link
