Clonmel RFC Under 11s v Ennis RFC

By Ciara Kiely

Clonmel’s Under 11s took to the pitch on home ground against Ennis on a fresh and wintry morning.

Clonmel fielded three teams, each team playing three games, and as always the Warriors lived up to their name. Each Warrior dug deep, attacked, defended and supported each other right to the final whistle.

Thanks are extended to the parents, coaches, club and the players for positively representing themselves and the club week in week out.

Clonmel RFC Under 14s v Carrick on Suir RFC

By Julian Armitage

The Clonmel Under 14s took to the field after a strong display by the Minis during the morning.

The weather was variable but mostly cold, as the Clonmel team squared up to their opponents for the day, Carrick-on-Suir.

The first try came within ten seconds of the start with a brilliant solo try from Jack Dillon. The team came together and produced a dominant display in a rain-soaked match to win convincingly.

It was a great result and onwards to the semi-final against a very strong Thurles team.

A great morning’s work saw the squad use all the skills and strategies developed on the training ground and put them to great use.

Many thanks to Clanwilliam for an excellent game of rugby.
