It's that time of year and we are excited to welcome back returning and new mini players, coaches and volunteers to Westport RFC. The World Cup is in full swing and we're lucky to have our own little slice of rugby heaven down in Carrowholly. As many of you know, we are currently upgrading our main pitch and have carried out considerable work on our Training pitch over the summer. With that in mind, we've had to make a few changes and spread ourselves out for the 23/24 season:

Training remains 10-11am on Saturday mornings. The Clubhouse will be open.

The U8s Mixed and U9 Boys will be training at Carrowholly NS, who have been kind enough to let us use their facilities.

The U10 Girls, U10 Boys and U12 Girls will be training at the Club.

The U11 Boys and U12 Boys will be based at the Rice College Astro Pitch

Our Minis Coordinator, Phillip Gladding, has been linking with other Clubs and scheduled Blitzes, all of which are away prior to the Christmas holidays. We will be uploading them to our fixture list over the next few days. Please keep an eye out.

For your convenience, please see the list below with Years of Birth corresponding to the different age groups:

U8 Mixed (2016)

U9 Boys (2015)

U10 Boys (2014)

U10 Girls (2014 & 2015)

U11 Boys (2013)

U12 Boys (2012)

U12 Girls (2012 & 2013)

We are considering the inclusion of U7s (2017) once again, however, this will be dependent on having additional coaches and parents to help.

Our new Club gear will be launching shortly via Hughsey Sport. For our Minis section, we will be selling jersey bundles that are heavily subsidized by our sponsors.

As always, a huge thank you to everyone who has been working behind the scenes to plan and organise for the 23/24 Season. We are grateful for all your help and so looking forward to getting our players back on the pitch, ball in hand.
