Great performances by Barnhall UNDER 16s
runners-up at the annual Gulliver's Travel Tournament.
By Sean Molloy 18th of April 2007

Hosted annually in the Iveagh Grounds, this international invitation tournament is becoming a showpiece for high quality youth rugby. Competition is always very stiff with the strongest of teams coming over from the U.K. to compete along with a number of Irish teams. This year 13 teams competed. Our pedigree is good in this tough tournament with last years U-16s winning the plate ...more

Dear Rugby Follower,

I am writing to you looking for your support for Trevor in his forthcoming appeal against a life ban from Rugby. Trevor's rise to the very top of world rugby has been well documented, and unique, and I believe an inspiration to young rugby players from various backgrounds.
Trevor is a genuine guy who is always willing to help various causes both on and off the rugby field. Trevor loves playing and been involved in rugby and to deny Trevor the right to be involved in rugby for the rest of his life is, I believe a grave injustice not only to Trevor but to genuine rugby people throughout the game.

Please e-mail your support for Trevor

Mullingar replied with an unconverted try of their own in the second quarter, and then a penalty, leading into half time with a score line of 8 points to 7 in favor of Mullingar ...more
