Genesis International Hockey Tournament
Celebrating 40 Years
We've invited seven teams to participate in a two day, U18, girls, international tournament, at St. Raphaela’s Secondary School, in Stillorgan, on the 29th and 30th of October, to celebrate our 40th anniversary year.
The clubs participating are; Avoca, Bray, Corinthians, Railway Union, Cork Harlequins, Portadown, IJburg Hockey Club from Amsterdam and Genesis. Matches start both days at 10am.
The tournament could not have been possible without the support from Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council, in particular from DLR Local Sports Partnership and St. Raphaela’s Secondary School, along with the fantastic volunteers from the Club who will be making sure that the tournament runs smoothly.
Genesis Hockey Club was founded in 1976 when a group of twelve players decided to form a new club. After long nights of deliberation, the group settled on the name Genesis, only after ‘Red Socks’ had been rejected by the Leinster Branch. They had the audacity to apply in the club’s first year to enter two teams in the Leinster league, one in division 1 and one in division 2. The club has since grown from two teams to six senior teams and a large youth section.
