Pegasus stand in the way of Queen’s extending their four match unbeaten run… Women’s EY All Ireland hockey league weekend fixtures, venues and times

Queen's on their way to victory over Ulster Elks last time out

AFTER a disrupted round of EY Hockey League ties, an almost full complement of matches will return this weekend as sides prepare for Round 6.

In the Women’s EYHL, Catholic Institute welcome Portadown to Rosbrien for the first time as the hosts continue their search for a first league win.

Pegasus will hope they can put a stop to Queen’s University’s four-game unbeaten run when they face off at The Dub.

Loreto take on nearby rivals Old Alex with the former aiming to continue their perfect start to the season.

Railway Union make the trip north to Jordanstown as they take on Ulster Elks.

And UCD host recent table climbers Pembroke Wanderers as the students look to return to winning ways and fight their way into the top half.

Elsewhere, club sides from all four corners of the country prepare for the opening rounds of the Irish Hockey Trophy and Irish Hockey Challenge, with thirty-two games set to be played in the KO16 phase of the four competitions.
