Great game of rugby and great buzz down at the Rugby Club – lovely to meet Paula and Josh from An Garda Siochana – click here for the FB Post – the presidents team played some dazzling rugby, with some incredible skills on show from a very small number of their players. The South Africans appeared to lack physical fitness, but there were glimmers of skills on show – great potential! Thanks to Bertus helping with the braai and all the family, friends and supporters of both teams who cam down to the club to enjoy the day and the match.
This Saturday 13th July, as part of the buildup for the 2nd test match between South Africa and Ireland, an invitational South African ex-pats team from Loughrea and surrounds will be playing a Loughrea Presidents team at in tag rugby!
Kick off is at 14:00 at Loughrea Rugby Club, with a boerewors rolls braai afterwards, followed by the match (kick off at 16:00) shown in the Loughrea RFC clubhouse.
Anyone over 16 can play – tag shorts and appropriate footwear are needed and remember, tag rugby is no contact!

The u17 boys team are providing a car wash at Loughrea Rugby Club on Sunday the 3rd March between 12PM and 4PM at the rugby club. Minimum donation €10.00.
The lads are at home to Corrib RFC this weekend.🔥
After a tight win away last week it’ll be up to the boys to follow up on their result against Tuam.👏
It’ll be an exciting, hard-hitting game of rugby, so all support will be needed
The boys will have to go out and have a great game to get the edge over Corrib.🤜🤛
We believe this is the team to do it.🍀
C’mon Loughrea!
