Letterkenny Girls to Play in 6 Nations!!!!

Letterkenny Girls to Play in 6 Nations!!!!

Martin Mortimer1 Feb 2016 - 16:18

Ballinasloe are the opposition

Letterkenny Rugby U-15 girls have been invited to play at Donneybrook at half time when the Ireland Ladies take on the ladies of Wales on February 6th.
They will represent Ulster against Connaught team Ballinasloe. This represents lots of hard work both by the team (who only started playing competitive matches this year) and coaches Allen McCrea, Seamus Culhane and James Sparkes.
The girls will play at halftime in front of an expected 10,000 crowd, indeed the IRFU had to print more tickets when they heard the Letterkenny ladies were coming. The girls will be training hard this week to get everything ready for the big day.
Letterkenny U-15 started playing league matches in November and although they have yet to win a match it won't be long as both the interest and skill levels are rising dramatically.
