Great to see JCT return today. Newbridge College take on Cistercian College Roscrea in the opening game. Newbridge are the current holders.

Within the North Midlands Rugby Clubs such as Naas Rugby(Naas RFC), Cill Dara Rugby Club Clane RFC Portarlington R.F.C Portlaoise Rugby Club Athy RFC Clondalkin Rugby Club and Newbridge Rugby Football Club Blessington RFC all have developed players from minis to youths and on into the schools system. Great to see so many former players play with local rugby schools. Naas Rugby(Naas RFC) are extreme;y proud of the fact that we have former minis and youths players on both teams today in the match in Donnybrook. No matter which team wins we are proud to support the development of rugby in the North Midlands area.
