Initially Shaw planned to retire as a player.[34][35] However he subsequently continued on as a player coach and, with a team that included David Fitzgerald, Peter Caruth and Kyle Good, he guided Monkstown to three successive Men’s Irish Hockey League titles between 2012\u201313 and 2014\u201315.[36][37][38][39][40]Source:[46]EY Champions Trophy[edit]Source:[46]Irish Junior Cup[edit]In 1906 the club won its first national trophy when the second team won the  Irish Junior Cup.[7]Notes^ After replay.

The team initially entered Leinster Division 14 but regularly gained promotion.[4][64] In 2009 Monkstown were “promoted” directly from Division 12 to Division 8 after three 11\u20130 wins. They then went onto win the Division 8 title by February with a final goal tally of +61.[63] By 2011 the club had gained promotion to Division 6.[65] In 2012 Monkstown absorbed the Dalkey Ladies Hockey Club. This saw the women’s section expand to four teams.[4] In the 2014\u201315 season all four teams gained promotion from their respective divisions.[64]In 2016, Monkstown merged with Hermes Ladies’ Hockey Club and the women’s senior team began playing in the Women’s Irish Hockey League under the name Hermes-Monkstown.[66][67][68] With a team that included Nicola Evans, Anna O’Flanagan and Chloe Watkins, Hermes-Monkstown subsequently finished the 2016\u201317 season as runners-up to UCD in both the national league [69][70][71] and the EY Champions Trophy.[72][73] Playing as Hermes-Monkstown, the club also represented Ireland in the 2017 EuroHockey Club Champions Cup.[74] In May 2018 Monkstown represented Ireland in the Women’s EuroHockey Club Trophy. They also hosted the tournament at Rathdown School.[75][76][77][78] In 2018\u201319 Monkstown became founder members of the new Women’s Irish Hockey League Division 2.[79][80]Home grounds[edit]Monkstown originally played their home games at Tivoli Terrace in Monkstown, County Dublin. Their original ground was the lower portion of a cricket pitch belonging to Corrig School.[4]Between 1898 and 1906 the club was based at Monkstown Avenue. Between 1906 and 1919 they again played at Tivoli Terrace. For a brief period after that, the club played at Crosthwaite Park before moving to more extensive grounds at Royal Terrace in 1922. The club remained at Royal Terrace until the ground was sold to D\u00fan Laoghaire Corporation in 1989.[7] The club is now based at Rathdown School.[81]Notable players[edit]Men’s internationals[edit]\u00a0IrelandOn 26 January 1895 the Ireland men’s national field hockey team played in the first ever international field hockey match when they defeated Wales 3\u20130 in Rhyl.
