After receiving a lot of requests, Longford RFC are happy to launch a new Men’s Vets Rugby Team.  The only qualification you need is to be over 35 and have played rugby before!  We welcome all players who have played for Longford or are from the general area who would like to play some Vets rugby.

The aim is to play 5-6 games of social rugby per season following by some obligatory beers and reminiscing about how great rugby was back in the day and possibly even to play in the end of season Over-35s Cup if the interest is there. 

First and foremost, it will be social rugby.  

There is also an opportunity to take part in the plethora of Vets Rugby tournaments that are being staged worldwide.

With Covid restrictions relaxing, it is hoped to play a game or two before the end of the current season so if you are interested, please email lrfconnects@gmail.com or give Tommy Butler a ring/text on 0863143968.

The first aim is to form a committee to get the team off the ground, after that the direction will be shaped by what the players want.

We look forward to hearing from you and please spread the word!
