Torc Óg – U9s Rugby Festival Returns!!

After a roaring success last year the Torc Óg U9s Festival returns bigger than ever with 12 teams lining out in Kanturk on Sunday 18th of November 2018.

The final preparations are being put in place for what is expected to be a fantastic day at Kanturk RFC.

There is a fantastic draw taking place on the day with the main prize being two tickets to the France v Ireland game in 2019. Wouldn’t that be nice!!
