This weeks fixtures kick off on Wednesday night with an all Ballynahinch encounter between their 4ths and their 5ths in a match that is too close to call!
Saturday sees the 3rd Round of the Northern Bank Schools’ Cup and we’ll be following Larne Grammar School in their match against Friends School. We’ll continue to follow the winners of this fixture in the next round and stay with each rounds winners all the way through to the final.
Ulster will be looking for their first win on English soil in the Heineken Cup on Saturday afternoon as they take on Bath at The Recreation Grounds. A win should see Ulster progress into the Challenge Cup knock out stages so there’s plenty to play for for the Belfast side.
There’s a full list of fixtures for the senior sides in the AIB All Ireland League but most of the attention for the Ulster clubs will be in the re-arranged Powerade Towns Cup fixtures.
As always, with the wintry weather continuing this week, please check with the schools or clubs before you travel to a match.
