I would like to notify all about a slight scheduling alteration for this Saturday, October 13th, 2012.

Our Referee Clinic is going ahead as planned, beginning at 9:00.

However, due to Galway Bay Lightning squad being forced to withdraw their participation for this weekend, the pre-Season matches will be as follows:

Shadows HC at Inline Hockey Cork (Start Time 13:20)
Longford Hawks at Shadows HC (Start Time 14:40)
Inline Hockey Cork at Longford Hawks (Start Time 16:00)

I apologize for the short notice, and look forward to seeing you all soon!
