Thank you from the CHC Fundraising Committee
The Fundraising Committee would like to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU for all the support given to the Table Quiz on January 27th 2012 in The Dropping Well. There was an incredible turn out on the night which was a success beyond our expectations with over €4,000 being raised for our club.
We genuinely hope that you enjoyed the evening and would like to express our thanks to Claire Solan from the 98FM Morning Crew for hosting the Bank Function Room on the evening. Lisa Carey would also like to thank her “helpers” on the evening who gave up their time to come along and help run the night.
Finally, we would like to thank our sponsors for donating prizes – The Lyrath Hotel, The Galway Harbour Hotel, Molson Coors, 98FM, Winesdirect.ie, Vodafone, Football Association of Ireland, The Dropping Well, Powerscourt Golf Club & Deveneys Off Licence and many others. We would ask you to support them in return for supporting us.
We hope that there’s plenty of time to recover before our next big Fundraising event on March 26th with a “Night at the Dogs” and we’ll be in touch shortly with more information!

Corinthian HC is a mixed club catering for all levels of hockey players, from Under 8 boys and girls, up through the age groups to adult teams and on to veterans. Our mens section fields 5 teams every week with our first 3 teams competing in the top 3 divisions. We also field 6 ladies teams ranging from Division 1 to Division 13. We pride ourselves on being a family-based club and it is not unusual to find 2 or more family members playing on the same team, sometimes even fathers and sons or mothers and daughters! Our junior hockey programme is the envy of many clubs in Leinster hockey, with more than 250 youngsters every week receiving the highest standard of coaching possible. Our junior coaches include current and former Irish national team members and international players.
CHC is renowned as a welcoming club. Down through the years we have forged great relationships with many other clubs the length and breadth of Ireland, and of course we have been enriched by the many foreign players who have made CHC their home-from-home, some for a short while, others more permanently. So if you are planning on spending time in Dublin and want to play hockey, by all means get in touch, we would be delighted to hear from you.
Whitechurch Park, the home of the Reds, is set in the beautiful grounds of St Columbas College and consists of 2 synthetic astro-turf pitches and a club house with modern changing facilities set back above the main pitch offering excellent viewing for spectators. Hover over the Club Info Page above for our location and directions.
We look forward to welcoming you.
