Final Tipp & Limerick M&S Emerging Schools Blitzes
27th March 2017 By The Editor
Munster player and Irish U20 captain Calvin Nash was on hand at LIT as the final regular round of the regional U15 & U17 Marks & Spencer Emerging Schools Blitzes took place both in Limerick and Tipperary last week.
Limerick’s Villiers School, St Clements College, CBS Sexton Street, Desmond College, Coláiste Mhuire Askeaton, Choláise Charáin Croom, and Gaelcolaiste Luimneagh took part in the blitz in LIT, where after some fine rugby Croom and Askeaton booked their place in the final, with St Clements joining them as best runner up.
Meanwhile in Tipperary St Ailbes, Nenagh CBS, Nenagh College, Cashel Community School and Thurles Co-Education were in Clanwilliam to contest the final round of the Tipperary blitzes. Nenagh CBS and Cashel Community College went through automatically with St Ailbes as best runner up to join the Limerick sides.
The final round in Clare will be ran this week with the top eight teams from all three counties qualifying for the North Munster Finals Day in Thomond Park on the 27th April.
Munster Rugby would like to pay special thanks to Clanwilliam FC, and LIT Limerick for the use of their facilities and grounds for both days.
