UCD Lacrosse fields two teams: one men’s team and one women’s team. The men play in the ILL (Irish Lacrosse League) and the women in the IWLL (Irish Women’s Lacrosse League).
UCD Men’s Team are two time winners of the ILL trophy and currently sit on top of the league table for the 2012/2013 season. The men are defending Dublinfest champions and are set to defend their title in April from teams around the UK and mainland Europe.
The UCD Women’s Team is also set to compete in the competition and is looking to improve their standing on last year, as they seek revenge over their British counterparts.
UCD play in the Belfield campus, Dublin 4, and are coached by:
Sean Bodie – UCD Men’s Team Head Coach, former National Team Player and current Ireland Assistant Coach
Kevin Quinn – Men’s Team Assistant Coach and National Team Player
Katelin Billups – Women’s Team Head Coach and National Team Player
Ashley DeFlumere – Women’s Team Assistant Coach and National Team Player
The training and playing facilities UCD Lacrosse possess are second to none; world class training pitches and gym, sports and conditioning and high performance gyms. Although UCD are a highly competitive outfit we are also driven by the love of the game and the need to develop the sport in this country. The focus within UCD is to recruit and develop new players every season.
UCD is the biggest lacrosse programme in the country and produces national team players every year but the main driving force behind the two teams is, and always will be, fun. We train hard but we always play harder, both on and off the field. Whether you’re a seasoned player or you just want to try something new UCD Lax is where you are going to enjoy it most.
See you on the field.
