Rugby is back with a bang at Moycarkey N.S.

October 3, 2021

We are delighted to announce that rugby has resumed once again this year with our fantastic trainer Aidan Butler from Munster Rugby. The children in 5th and 6th have been so excited to take part in these classes which will run for an 8 week period, after which our 3rd and 4th class will also take part. Throughout these vigorous non contact sessions, the children will develop their throwing and catching, passing and movement skills not to mention team work and communication. These sessions are thoroughly enjoyable and we can’t wait until our next one!
