Buccaneers RFC U-10 and U-12 Girls are having a busy November. Last Saturday was a 10 am kick-off for a Connacht Blitz Girls Series where Corinthians RFC were our excellent hosts. We had competitive games v Connemara All Blacks, Galwegians, Galway Bay RFC, Loughrea Unicorns and Claremorris Colts.
Then on Sunday a bus trip to the UCD Bowl where all our players provided a Guard of Honour and played half time “Give It a Try GIAT Match” at the Women’s Autumn International Ireland v Wales. Our IRFU hosts and the Irish team were absolutely fantastic and generous with their time, meeting with all our players after the game for selfies and autographs despite their disappointment in losing a spectacular game with the last play of the game. For the Buccaneers girls it was a great, memorable day and especially for our young players to see and meet such role models.
