6 YOUNG BUCCS SELECTED ON IRELAND TOUCH RUGBY SQUADS

Six young Buccaneers players have been selected to play for Ireland in the 2023 Atlantic Youth Touch Rugby Cup in Nottingham in July.

John and Philip Finnan and Niamh Purtill are in the U-15 Mixed squad for the second time, having played in France last season. This year they will be joined by Molly Copelin and Alex Connor which is a remarkable achievement for these debutants as they have been playing for less than a year!

Aoife Purtill is named on the Mixed U-18 side moving up from the U-15’s of last season.

An honourable mention goes to Aoibhinn Tynan who is very unfortunate to miss out on selection.

We wish all the best to the three girls and three guys in their respective tournaments.
