Bank of Ireland Senior Club of the Year – Nenagh Ormond RFC
Nenagh Ormond RFC are the winners of this year’s Bank of Ireland Senior Club of the Year award as they were announced tonight at the Woodlands House Hotel in Adare, Co. Limerick.
The club enjoyed a fantastic season both on and off the pitch. The club finished top of the table in Division 2A of the Men’s All Ireland League to gain automatic promotion to 1B.
One of the province’s oldest clubs, Nenagh Ormond was founded in 1884 and has played in the All-Ireland League since 2005/06 - the first Tipperary Club to do so.
With a thriving age-grade section, they boast several full international players among their alumni including Fiona Steed, Trevor Hogan, Donnacha Ryan and Ben Healy.
In the past 12 months there have been major developments in the club which include a full size 3G Pitch, 50x14m training 3G, upgraded LED floodlighting and upgraded gym and dressing rooms.
The first competitive game on their new artificial surface will take place on Saturday September 8th versus Cork Constitution in the Bank of Ireland Munster Senior Challenge Cup.
