Antrim Hockey Club - All-Ireland Competitions

All-Ireland Competitions

Antrim have never won the Irish Senior Cup. They lost their first final to Limerick PYMA by 2 goals to 1 on 31 March 1928. Despite a protest against one of the umpires the result stood. In 1954 the first team lost another Irish Senior Cup Final to Dublin YMCA.

The second team has fared better in the Irish Junior Cup. Their first Final in 1899-1900 resulted in a 2-1 defeat by Corinthians Second XI. However the other three Final appearances resulted in victories. The Cup was won twice in successive years, in 1947 beating Roscrea, from Co Tipperary by two goals to one, and in 1948 beating Pembroke Wanderers Seconds by three goals to two. The last Irish Junior Cup success came in 1976 when Limerick PYMA were beaten by two goals to one.
