Hockey is all about the clubs. The provincial is inconsequential

The women's games have some rule about you needing to be a woman to play (whatever that means now days).

So it's not really 'Women playing rugby/hockey' in the way that it is 'Women riding horses'
BR , I know you like to deal in facts, can you refer one to the Rules were you got the information to make such a bold statement

I wouldn't know my way around hockey legislation to point you at even the most basic of rules.

However the IOC have some pretty complex rules about who can and cannot compete in women's events. All to do with levels of testosterone over a period of time.

If Philip Michael Matthews, rugby player, formerly of this parish, not to mention Ulster, Ireland and B&I Lions, has an interest in the weemen's Hockey wot's goin' on just now, then for me, that makes it fair for comment on these forums. :thumleft:

and that's a fact.

Well done girls on another great performance. (if that doesn't sound too patronising :duck: )
