Scenes from the Ireland Vs Australia tag rugby tests at the weekend in UCD Belfield.
Kieran Ryan writes:
“Ireland played Australia in a series of International Tag Rugby Tests at Uthe weekend; Men’s, Women’s, Mixed Senior (Over 30s), and Mixed Open. Each of the teams played each other twice, so there were 8 Tests in all.
Australia won both of the Women’s Tests and both of the Mixed Senior Tests but Ireland managed to defeat the Aussies in one of the Mixed Open Tests and one of the Men’s Tests. Basically, Ireland defeated Australia, the inventors of Tag Rugby and current world champions, in two International Tests which made it a very proud day indeed for Irish Tag Rugby.
The Australians will now tour Cork and Galway before arriving in Limerick on Thursday ahead of the next set of international tests which will take place in Old Crescent RFC, Dooradoyle, Limerick next Friday afternoon.”
