For more details contact David Black – Mini Convenor on 07760919094.

Youth rugby continues on Wednesday nights 7 30 – 9pm. The U-16’s opened their season with a friendly against Portadown and showed great promise despite a narrow 12-10 defeat. All 25 boys got some game time and it is great to see such a large squad.

Subscriptions are now due for all members. Convenor David Napier can be contacted for more information.

Pre-match lunches will be extremely busy this season with 4 local derbies to look forward to in Division 1B and the return of St.Mary’s  RFC to Ballymacarn Park. As a result the club has introduced a 250 club ticket which guarantees the holder a place at all nine home AIL lunches as well as the Malone SONI Premiership game. For more information see any member of council.

Tickets for the New Zealand game this autumn are proving to be in high demand and the club is holding a draw for two tickets plus an overnight stay in Dublin. Priced at £5, they are available from all council members.
