Following a disappointing start to the season against Belfast Harlequins last weekend, the Senior team travels north to Ballyclare to hopefully get a first win under our belt. The South East Lions kick off their season at home against Kilkenny on Sunday at 1pm, hopefully the first game in Division 3 goes our way. J1s are in action at home on Sunday also against Navan at 3pm. Best of luck to all the players, coaches and managers.

We enjoyed some very good results in the Youths section last weekend and have a busy weekend ahead. Seven teams are in action starting with the Colts against New Ross tonight at 7.30. Best of luck to all the girls and boys and their coaches and managers. Hopefully we will see lots of support for our Adults and Youths this weekend.

Minis continue to train Sunday mornings and we are always on the look out for new recruits. If you know someone who might enjoy giving it a try then I'd encourage you to bring them along.

Thanks to Paul Flood for the work he did behind the goalpost to allow proper parking. It is very much appreciated and hopefully will keep people from parking on the driveway and mean less rescues from the mud on wet days.

I'm delighted to share that we were successful in our application for a Sports Capital Grant and have been awarded €101,667 to go towards match grade lights for our back pitch. Given all your support via the 300 Club draw and the grant award we will now be able to plan the upgrade. Thanks and well done to Rory Fanning and Andrew Kelly who worked hard to submit an excellent response. The 4G pitch subcommittee will work on a plan for this development which will we share over the coming months. 

Thanks as always for your support and we look forward to good rugby over the weekend.
