Now is your chance to have a say in the direction Munster Hockey takes.

The IHUA has recently launched an umpiring web system. If you have not seen this yet its definitely worth checking out.

For clubs, the system will post their fixtures, umpire appointments, technical official appointments, provide all relevant ‘match day’ contact details and much, much more. Many of the functions include automatic emails to the individual or individuals concerned or to certain administrators when the system recognizes that an administrator needs to do something.

Because it is web based, the system is accessible to anyone, anywhere in the world, as long as they have an internet connection and providing the user has the required password for their access.
