Congratulations to the U20s team who got to the JP Flanagan Premier One qualifier final, and lost out to a strong Corinathians team in Galway last weekend. A great squad, well managed and coached who can be very proud of their start out in the club and the very best of luck to the season and future in the club for many years to come. The club is in rude health when we see this team competing with the best teams in the country, it only bodes well for the future. Great to see so many supporters behind the team and the senior squads supporting all teams, this is what a club is all about! 


Another busy week coming out of Stradbrook- what a win by Ireland's Women's teams victory over New Zealand (29-27), congrats to all Rock women involved and well done to Enya Breen on the captaincy of her country and also to Aoife Wafer and Emily Lane on selection for the recent Canada fixture... it's very exciting times ahead and very best of luck to Enya & Aoife playing in Friday's final round v USA. 


A local derby, triple header, visit to Old Belvedere last week was a highlight for the club. We played the men's first game from 2.30pm which was followed by the women's 1sts and 2nds fixtures. A super lunch hosted by Belvo saw good crowds head out for a feast of rugby where Blackrock College RFC won all 3 matches, 34-35 (Mens 1st), 7-15 (Womens 1st)  and 5-34 (Womens 2nds) to secure all victories- that's some achievement and congratulations to all involved. 


It has been great to see all teams so well supported by the other teams in the club, its a testament to all the continued hard work by all the players, coaches, staff, volunteers and supporters of Blackrock College RFC to make this happen so thank you all, onwards and upwards! 


See you all in the club soon! 


Ray McMahon

President, Blackrock College RFC 2024/25
