Irish Hockey Squad Announcement ahead of European Hockey Championships
3 August 2011; Ireland’s Men and Women’s squads were today announced for the EuroHockey Nations Championships taking place in Monchengladbach, Germany from 20th – 28th August. Both Paul Revington, men, and Gene Muller, women, revealed their squads for what will be their biggest tournaments this summer, and Ireland’s first opportunity to qualify for the London 2012 Olympics. Both sides have had exceptionally busy and successful summers. The men most recently added a trophy to their cabinet when they took gold at the recent INSEP tournament in Paris ahead of Australia, Korea and Argentina. Ireland women have also had an intense summer as they continue to train centrally while they also produced some great results at the Electric Ireland FIH Champions Challenge I tournament where they finished above their ranking.
