* The IHA has opened nominations for the 2010 ESB Irish Hockey Awards with 12 gongs to be awarded on May 29. The categories include this year a Hockey School of the Year title in addition to the 11 titles awarded in 2009.

Every school, club and branch secretary has been sent a link through which to make their nominations and, to make sure the right people are put forward for each award, the hockey public are encouraged to get in contact with their club or school representatives to make sure their voice is heard. Nominations close on April 19.
