🇮🇪🏑 World Cup call-up for Adrian! 🏑🇮🇪

Huge congratulations to Adrian on being selected for the Ireland O60s squad for the 2026 Hockey World Cup in Brasschaat, taking place from 6–16 August 👏

It’s a fantastic achievement and a brilliant recognition of Adrian’s quality, commitment and love for the game. We’re incredibly proud to see another Marden representative heading to the world stage and flying the flag for both club and country.

Best of luck from everyone at Marden — we’ll be cheering you on all the way! 🍎

We are very excited to announce that Marden Russets have agreed a new kit supply contract with Y1 and the website is now live at:
https://y1sport.com/collections/marden-russets-hc!

We are working on getting some sample shirts available in the clubhouse in the next week but sizing charts are available on the site. We have a 2 week launch offer available until 20th July.

Y1 was selected because of its fantastic quality, brand recognition, and the overall offering.

We hope you are as excited as we are!

Massive thanks to Scott Crawford for conducting the kit review and working with Y1 to get this over the line.
