YMCA claimed Division 6 on Wednesday night with a hard fought 1-0 win against Newbridge II, taking their fourth consecutive league title with two games to spare.
As a result, the club remains on course for a third successive treble following last year’s Irish Hockey Challenge, league and cup success as they face Clontarf on April 10 in the division 5/6 decider.
The club is currently in the midst of a two-year unbeaten run, adding this league success to their Challenge success in March.It’s very much a family affair with sisters Tara,Sian and Aimee Powderly lining out, father Robin managing and brother Will holding the coach’s clipboard.
Powered by midfield boss Helen Keane, Lynn Jenkinson – daughter of former Irish international, Tom – at sweeper and captained by Emily Bradshaw (pictured, receiving the IHC crown), they continue their meteoric rise since forming four years ago.
