What promotion means to Queen's
Portadown celebrate promotion

IN the Women’s EYHL2 Play-Off Semi-Finals, Portadown made a perfect end to a first EYHL2 campaign, sealing promotion and a place in the finals, beating Corinthian by a single goal from Emily Adamson. Queen’s University also secured promotion, coming from two goals down to draw level and win the shoot-out.

Elsewhere the EY Champions Trophy quarter finals saw four Women’s sides fight to secure the final places in the EY Champions Trophy Finals Weekend.

Old Alex hit Catholic Institute for six in Rosbrien to reach the Finals Weekend, with six different scorers helping them overcome Catholic Institute.

Elsewhere, Ulster Elks edged a tight encounter with fellow Ulster side Pegasus, with Elks eventually managing to book their place in the Finals Weekend in the Penalty Shoot-Out. Old Alex will face Loreto and Ulster Elks will meet Railway Union in the EY Champions Trophy Finals Semi-Finals in Havelock Park on May 3.
