Munster And Irish Players Visit Abbeyfeale

Irish international Siobhán Fleming and her Munster and Tralee team-mate Ríona Kennedy paid a surprise visit to Abbeyfeale RFC last Monday night to train with the underage girls in the club.

There was much excitement when the girls arrived and the Under-13’s were the first to learn from Siobhán, two-time Munster Women's Player of the Year, and Tralee captain Ríona what it takes to represent your province and country.

Then both the Under-15’s and the Under-18’s gained some valuable on-pitch advice from the girls with both Siobhán and Ríona taking part in their sessions and imparting their knowledge.

To finish the evening it was back to the clubhouse for a welcome cup of tea where more questions, selfies and pictures followed!
