Clubs and schools are invited to nominate players to attend the trials for the Munster U18 girls by emailing each player’s name, position, school and/or club to munsteru18girls@gmail.com. The deadline for nominations is Friday 16th March. Any player born on or after 1/1/2001 and before 1/1/2003 is eligible to trial.
In previous years, this trial process has been made more difficult for coaches and management due to the volume of players involved. To ensure each girl gets a fair trial and has the best opportunity to be seen, we would strongly encourage you to please only send players whom you believe have the potential to represent Munster.
Information about the first trial will be posted on the Munster Hockey website in due course.
