Field hockey
Domestic teams
In 1947 Haughton was a member of the Dublin University team that won the Irish Senior Cup. Haughton's obituary in The Irish Times recalled a story of how he and his Dublin University team mates helped the Ireland national rugby union team defeat England in the 1947 Five Nations Championship. While returning from a tour of Oxford and Cambridge, the Dublin University team shared a ferry with the England team. They persuaded six of the England players to join them at the bar. Haughton claims his "bit of sabotage was fairly well advanced" before an England selector discovered the missing players. The next day Ireland defeated England 22–0. Haughton was also a member of the Three Rock Rovers team that won the Irish Senior Cup in 1953, 1959, 1962. He also represented Leinster at interprovincial level and toured with the Buccaneers.[1]
