Junior Club Junior coaching takes splace on Saturday mornings and welcomes new members from 6 to 16 years of age. We encourage new junior members, hopefully they will continue on to senior level and even play on interprovincial teams. Some players have come through this system to play inter nationally at underage level. Last season the junior club took part in the national U12 girls tournament run by the IHA (Irish Hockey Association) as part of women in sport initiative. Thirty two teams took part from across the country in the tournament.

New players are always welcome. If you have never played hockey before why not come along and give it a try? There is a great social aspect to the ladies club so it’s a good opportunity to meet new people and keep fit. We are also looking for coaches and umpires to help and IHA training will be provided to anyone that is interested.

Match Report Carlow 1 - 1 Wexford 2nds Carlow 0 - 2 Wexford 2nds (penalties) Both teams travelled to Kilkenny today to play in the semi-final of the South East Plate competition and both teams were hungry for a win. Carlow were slow to start, with Wexford putting pressure on the Carlow defence and forcing them to make mistakes. There efforts paid off and midway through the first half they slotted home the opening goal of the day. Carlow started to fight back and started working the ball up the pitch. Leanne Lambert and Sinead Doyle made some great play through midfield to open up Wexford. Sarah Fingleton put some great crosses in towards the goal but Carlow severely lacked the killer instinct in front of the goal and could not put away any of the chances. The second half Carlow came out determined to undo the damage and had Wexford on the back foot from the start. However this was short lived as the game settled and both teams were in search of a goal. Joyce Mahon was solid in defence and with the help of Natasha Collins, Sara Ashmore and Susan Willis they kept Wexford at bay. Ten minutes from the end, Carlow broke down the Wexford defence and Leanne Lambert took a shot on goal but it was denied and it was left to Orla Reddy to slot home the rebound. The goal meant that both teams now had a chance to claim a place in the final. The match ended in a draw and went onto extra time with a golden goal situation. However neither team had another goal in them and so it was left to penalties to decide the fate of the two teams. Carlow selected 5 players to take the penalty flick and they were Lisa Walshe, Justine Collins, Leanne Lambert, Sara Ashmore and Ruth Treacy. It was nerves all round as Sinead Doyle stood in goal to defend the first penalty and it was relief for Carlow as the ball hit the post. Unfortunately Carlow were not able to put away any of their flicks and even though Sinead Doyle saved two it wasn’t enough to see Carlow through. Leanne Lambert and Sinead Doyle were great for Carlow and the defence had a great game. Team: Marie Sheppard, Joyce Mahon, Sara Ashmore, Susan Willis, Natasha Collins, Ruth Treacy, Leanne Lambert, Sinead Doyle, Justine Collins, Sara Fingleton, Lisa Walshe, Ana Kehoe, Orla Reddy and Gillian Roycroft.
