5th September '09 - Anglo-Irish Cup 2009. Great Dane wins the first edition of the Anglo-Irish Cup (35-32 final score). In a very intense match, with constant overtaking between the two sides, the current English champions managed to keep their coolness and win in the last few minute over the equally strong Dublin International team. Chris O'Reilly deserve a special mention. This young player, recently moved from North Kildare to DI, showed already to benefit from the summer training with DI's experienced players. We hope that this competition, born as an initiative of the Dublin International Club and with the support of the English Handball Association, will see continuation in the coming years. -DVD of the match is available on request.

This summer has seen the departure from Ireland of Silke and Susanne. the two UCD players were important personality of the UCD and Ireland handball life. They contributed by playing, partying, baking cakes, and coaching. Silke and Susanne were the first two coaches of the re-etablished Girls U14 Irish team.
