I Want to join Hockey in Dublin City Centre

Funkyapple

Hi All,

Anyone know of a Hockey club I can join in the Dublin Area? I have been looking online but finding it hard to get any info. I will be a beginner but very interested to join.

I am female but wouldnt mind playing in a mixed team.

Help:)

Where do you live in Dublin? The club locator on hockey.ie lists all the clubs.

I'd say Guinness hockey club is the closest to you they are in the Iveagh grounds. There is also a club called St. Brendans/Phoenix Park that play on grass in the phoenix pitch and in Grangegorman. Looking at the map Rathgar HC isn't a long way from you or maybe Weston in Lucan.

Rathgar and Weston would be larger clubs than the other two with better facilities but I would suggest heading down to training and seeing how you get on at any of those clubs.

Do you mean Ice/Inline hockey, or Field hockey? I think the previous replies are in relation to Field hockey.
For Ice/Inline hockey:

Ice hockey is mostly played in Castleknock Ice Rink and Inline hockey is mostly played in Ballyfermot Leisure Centre and ALSAA in Santry.

Castleknock Ice Rink will be closing in the next week though, unfortunately. There is open ice hockey tonight (Monday) at 9pm and then again on Wednesday at 8pm. It's a mixed group of players of all levels so feel free to join us.

If you're on facebook, send me a private message on this with your details and I'll add you to the ice hockey group where you can get the most up to date info on ice/inline hockey in Ireland.

Presuming you meant Ice/Inline hockey when you posted this...
