Report

The Leinster Softball League was re-organised in 2004, with the Premier 1, Premier 2, Senior, Junior, Minor Divisions renamed the Premier, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th Divisions.

The 2004 season ended in controversy, with Marlay Martyrs A and Dodder Dynamoes due to play a final game which would decide the title after Marlay had forfeited a game during the season [2].

Dodder Dynamoes won the title in 2005 with a 13-1 record [3] , and in 2006 they finished level with Oddsox Green on 11-3 [4] . They would again fiish top in 2007, on a 12-2 recod, one win ahead of Batpak [5].

In 2010 Softball Leinster would be reformed to administer the running of the Leinster Softball League.

Report

Softball Leinster was reformed in 2011 to run the Leinster Softball League.

Kiely’s Kegs, based in Wanderers RFC, Sandymount, would take the 2013 title with 12 wins, one more than Batpak [5]. Oddsox Green, Dodder Dynamoes and Kiely’s Kegs would all finish level at the top in 2014 on 11-3, with Kiely’s Kegs winning the tie-breaker [21].

TNT (a.k.a. ‘The New Team’) entered the League in 2015 and took the title on a tie-breaker from Oddsox Green [7]. This would be Oddsox last season. Dodder Dynamoes took the title from Kegs on a tie-breaker in 2016 [8] and in 2017 TNT would win back the title on a perfect 14-0 record [9].

The Premier Division would become a separate Premier League in 2018, with the ratio of Men:Women at 5:5, as opposed to the rest of the League which would still have 6:4 ratio.

Dynamoes won the title in both 2018 & 2019, losing only one match over the two years.

Report

The Men’s Challenge Trophy was the European Handball Federations competition for emerging Nations. Having competed with club sides & countries like Greenland in the mid-1990s, Ireland entered this competition for the first time in 1999.

Ireland found the going tough winning only 3 matches over the course of seven trophys – once against Malta (1999) and twice against Scotland (2007 & 2009).

Ireland’s Total Record in the Competitions from 1999 to 2012 reads: Played 34 Won 3 Lost 30 Drew 1.

About

Olympic Handball, sometimes called Team Handball or European Handball, is a team sport similar to Indoor Soccer or Futsal, except hands are used rather than feet.

The object of the sport is to pass the ball using only the hands in order to get into a semi-circle around the opposing teams goal, where a shot may be taken. Each score counts as one goal, and the court is the exact same as a Futsal court indeed Futsal was invented as an Indoor version of Soccer, using the Olympic Handball court.

The sport was invented in Germany & Northern Europe at the end of the 19th Century & beginning of the 20th Century.

Report

In Ireland’s fifth time entering the competition in 2009, they were placed in a Western Group involving Finland, who were hardly an emerging Nation at Olympic Handball, Malta & Scotland.

Ireland had a disappointing opening loss to Malta, before defeat to eventual Champions Finland. They won their last match 35-29 to finish off bottom for the second Challenge Trophy in a row, although more could have been expected following their showing in 2007.

Finland went on to win the Trophy, 30-28 in the Final against defending Champions Georgia.
