Re: Any word on the Academy?
Ulster schools coaching and rugby resources compared to Leinster are miles behind. Top schools like clongowes have a rugby supplement charge for pupils wishing to play performance rugby of 3-5k a year. Mummy and daddy see this as a way into Leinster and also keep up with the O’Jones

Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League
Carrick, Instonians and Ballyclare fielding an additional adult male team this season. Testament to the hard work that goes on at youth level and the social element of the clubs. Guys play rugby with their mates and have fun. Few beers after a hard game still has massive value.

Still have fair chunk of students to make it back to Belfast too. Qualifying league w...

Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League
