McCullough Cup Semi-Final

Thursday 28th November

3pm

Lisnagarvey Hockey Club

Banbridge Academy v Friends’ School

Ulster Hockey admission prices:     Adults £4,     Pupils £2

Banbridge Academy 1st XI Coach Simon Jess will be expecting a tough test against Friends’ School Lisburn. But the Academy are full of confidence after defeating their nemesis of recent years Sullivan Upper 4-2 in their final group game. Edward Rowe dominated that match with a hat-trick of penalty corner strikes. A slender 2-1 defeat to Wallace in the opening group match will also give the Academy hope as they competed well against one of the competition favourites.

The young Academy team have only three Upper Sixth players so their experience in the All-Irelands should benefit them. In Dublin they lost out in the final winner-takes-all group game 3-1 to eventual winners Dublin High School in a hostile game in front a large home support at Dublin High School.

The Academy team is littered with Ulster U16 and U18 players. The Rowe brothers, Edward, Charlie and Louis, will run the Academy’s midfield alongside Mark Cowan and Tommy Dobson. Upfront youngster Matthew McKee has been a revelation although Ben Ingram misses out with a broken thumb.

Coach Simon Jess says that he is “extremely disappointed that the semi-final is not being played on the traditional Wednesday afternoon slot. Schools were not consulted by Ulster Hockey about the move to a Thursday afternoon and we cannot bring any supporters as the game clashes with another pre-arranged school event.”

The staff and players would appreciate as much support as possible.
