Cookstown Hockey Club

Alan Carson

The Reds had a big win at Castlederg earlier in the season and will be hoping to rediscover the style that saw them go so many matches unbeaten. The action gets going at 8pm at Steelweld Park.
The only home match on Saturday sees Cookstown III take on Instonians III at 4pm.
The Reds went third in the JL2 table and will be hoping that a win will help them keep the pressure on the teams ahead of them.
It’s second v third in JL3 as Cookstown IV travel to Newry II at 1pm.
The Reds will be hoping that the excellent form of Josh and Rob Turkington can help keep them on Harlequins’ tail going into the Christmas break.
Cookstown Men are also on the road. They face Queen’s University at The Dub at 2.30pm.
The students currently sit bottom of the Ulster Premier League table, but Cookstown cannot let that cloud their judgement. Only a win will do if they are to keep pace with the teams above them.
Cookstown II have the only remaining 100 per cent winning record in JL1, but find themselves mid-table due to having only two games played.
They face Annadale II – one of two teams with a 100% record in a less desirable way – at Strathearn School at 4pm in what is always a competitive game no matter their respective league standings.
