Cloverfield Pupils Enjoy Primary Schools Blitz At Bruff RFC

The boys and girls from Cloverfield National School, County Limerick recently took part in the annual primary school end of season touch rugby blitz day at neighbouring club Bruff RFC.

The purpose of the day was to introduce boys and girls of all ages to rugby and encourage them to sign up with their local club in the new season.

The game of touch rugby promotes the evasive and running skills of the game without the tackle element. Both the boys and girls competing in their respective blitzes displayed great running rugby with impressive ball handling, passing and tries scored.

Cloverfield was one of three national schools that took part on the day. All participating schools received an IRFU Play Rugby pack containing rugby balls, cones and bibs to encourage the pupils in continuing to play rugby at their school.

Munster Rugby would like to thank all three primary schools for taking part on the day and the other eight primary schools in which Bruff RFC Schools Rugby coach Ed Hennessy and Bruff Community Rugby Officer Eoin Cahill attended throughout the 2015/16 season.

The Munster Rugby Summer Camp at Bruff RFC for 6 to 12 year olds will be held on Monday 8th to Friday 12th August. For more information or to book your place please click here
