Cheers

thats cool!so long as u use the st pats name as they are bastards in UCC sports hall as they only want 'student' teams to participate. and also it loks likelynow that we only have the hall on the saturday, again the bhoys in the opffice causing a raucus

Seeing as you might only have the saturday, how many teams would you be looking to have, also will it be just male teams or will female teams also be invited?

I am hoping for both sexes to compete but i will not know anything until enough interest has been shown and with the information i have of teams who want to compete that i will beable to come any conclusions if there will be a womens competition.at the moment it would not look like that there will be a womens team in UCC but if there are women teams wanting to compete, i can put on a competition because, in all fairness, we dont want a total sausage fest if u excuse the language

just confirmed from Marion, that crazy german some of ye would know, that sunday is available for us also so 2 days as initially stated

And i think Marion mentioned one more team that wants to go.

At the moment the tournament is put on hold as we have to iron out details with the SU office in UCC and the PE Office in the Mardyke.
we have a meeting on Monday so everything will be confirmed for definite by Tuesday if not Wednesday.Sorry about the delay but its all politics down Leeside we have to overcome :(
Will keep ye posted

Kildare men will be playing too.

well well, the power of the little men struck and this tournament is OFF! a big apology to all concerned!

That's a pity. Don't give up! If at first you don't suceed etc.etc.

is it that the guy doesn't like handball or he doesn't like Marion? Any chance to reschedule for spring or March sometime?

we will look at dates where it doesnt clash with league games in the New Year.hopefully to have the tournament by mid february

even March...St.Patrick???? ah no, accommodation going to be a nightmare....please let us know in advance....
