History

Old Wesley Hockey Club

Hermes Ladies' Hockey Club was a successor club of the Old Wesley Hockey Club, originally founded by former pupils of Wesley College. During the 1950s and early 1960s, Old Wesley played at Leinster intermediate level. Traditionally Old Wesley recruited players from Protestant schools. However, in order to make the move to senior status, the club decided to expand its membership to the wider community and change its name. In April 1966 Old Wesley was relaunched as Hermes Ladies' Hockey Club, taking Old Wesley's place in the Leinster Senior Division.[1]

Irish Senior Cup

Hermes won the Irish Senior Cup for the first time in 1997, defeating Muckross 2–1 in the final. They won a second Irish Senior Cup in 1999 defeating Pegasus 3–2 in the final. They were cup winners on two further occasions in 2005 and 2006.[1]
