Hundreds attended today’s session and got the chance to see Munster train as they prepare to face Zebre in Round 18 of the Guinness PRO12 at Thomond Park on Friday night – KO 7pm.
Afterwards, players met with fans, signed autographs and posed for photos and selfies. A few of the squad even gave away some of their training gear while the first two hundred fans through the gate received free tickets to the Zebre game.
As it's Easter, the session concluded with a serious test of agility, balance and speed as players and backroom staff joined Junior MRSC members for an egg & spoon race.
Fans took to Twitter following the event:
