In the IRFU's 150th year, Navan RFC had 150 in attendance at the First Round of the Guiness W6N in Belfast on Saturday March 22nd.
Saturday morning the group headed off on two buses up to Kingspan Stadium. The group consisted of U12, U14, U16, U18's and Seniors, in addition to coaches, parents and family. And to add to the excitement of the day, the U12's played at game at half time against Sligo RFC. They shared the half-time pitch with singer Lyra.
The result on the day didn't go in Ireland's favour, losing out to the French. However the group had a great day and memories were made.
The importance of the group attending the game, seeing and meeting their role models in action and after the game, and enjoying the day will live in their memory. The end of season trip, capped off a great year for the teams. With the U14s now in full preparation mode for their upcoming tour trip to Treviso, Italy.
