Hockey Ireland Domestic Weekend Results Round-Up

EHYL 2 WOMEN'S POOL A

BELFAST HARLEQUINS 5 GREENFIELDS 0

Connacht Division 1 side Greenfields decided to play both their home and away games in Dublin at the National Sports Campus and it made sense for both clubs economically speaking to do so. There was no need for either side to overnight in either city given that Dublin was closer to Galway than Belfast and also closer for the Ulsterwomen than Galway. Jennifer McAuley opened the scoring for Harlequins in their temporary " home" with a goal from open play on the 3rd minute. Emma Fraser increased the lead for the Ulsterwomen a minute later 2-0 Harlequins.  Amy Cummings-Bell made it 3-0  in the 41st minute.  Jennifer McAuley added a fourth from a converted penalty corner in the 46th minute. Katherine Welsh man put the tin hat on a 5-0  win with a goal from open play in the 52nd minute. Belfast Harlequins 5 Greenfields 0
