City Of Armagh RFC Notes: MINI RUGBY FESTIVAL REPORT 2013

City of Armagh’s Mini Rugby festival on Saturday 6th April was a roaring success. The organisers would like to thank the large amount of volunteers, sponsors Domino’s Pizza, McShane Packaging and Noel Conn Accountants, as the City club once again hosted the largest Mini Rugby Festival in Ireland. Spring sunshine donned the tranquil setting of the Palace Grounds as the City club brought together clubs from both Leinster and Ulster.

More players than anticipated turned out, approximately 1,100 players taking part. Approximately 100 teams took to part with each team playing playing 5-7 games each depending on the amount of teams within their pools and age groups. Armagh fielded 2-3 teams in each age group providing their players with plenty of rugby cheered on by their many vocal supporters.
