Irish Rugby : Club & Community : News : Friday Is Closing Date For 'Your Club, Your Country' Tickets

IRFU Chief Executive Philip Browne has issued a statement following confirmation of Ronan O'Gara's decision to retire from playing professional rugby.

Ronan O'Gara's retirement from professional rugby brings to an end an achievement-packed career that saw him dominate matches in Ireland and around the world in the colours of Cork Constitution, Munster, Ireland and the British & Irish Lions.

IRFU provincial and national age grade coaches - Under-18s, Under-19s and Under-20s - and IRFU elite player development staff from the four provinces gathered recently to review their experiences, discuss challenges and align closer to ensure the development of more effective elite players across the IRFU Elite Player Pathway.

The closing date for receipt of all tickets - sold and unsold - from participating clubs is 5pm on Friday, November 2.

Clubs need to return their ticket stubs and all books of unsold tickets by this date to ensure that they are included in the Grand Prize Draw.

All valid entries for the draw must be returned for the attention of Christina Smyth, Commercial and Marketing Department, IRFU, 10-12 Lansdowne Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 by participating clubs, including the completion form.

There are some great Irish rugby prizes on offer from the IRFU and their family or partners, including a trip to Australia with the British & Irish Lions in 2013.
