On Saturday, July 30, Banbridge RFC will host an exciting night of sporting entertainment featuring local sports stars from rugby, boxing, GAA, cricket and golf in a venture to raise funds for both Banbridge RFC and the IRFU Charitable Trust.
And Garry has called upon his nephews Simon and Rory Best to help support the fundraising effort for both Banbridge and the Charitable Trust.
Brothers Simon and Rory will go head to head against each other when they captain their respective teams in 'A Question of Sport.'
The quiz will be hosted by Sky Sports pundit and former Banbridge player Tyrone Howe, and the two teams will feature former Commonwealth heavyweight champion boxer Marty Rogan, Down Gaelic football star Marty Clarke, former Irish cricket captain Kyle McCallan and professional golfer Richard Kilpatrick.
The night will also include comedy from Irish rugby legend Mick Quinn and music from Fiddler Adam, while a hog roast dinner is included in the price of the ticket.
Tickets cost £20 and will be available to buy online or from Banbridge club committee members from next Monday (June 20).
The night offers a great opportunity to support both the fantastic work of the IRFU Charitable Trust as well as help raise vital funds for Banbridge RFC for the forthcoming season.
Full details of the Charitable Trust's World Cup Cycle are available here. Any queries about Banbridge event can be addressed to news@banbridgerfc.com

Previewing Saturday's RaboDirect PRO12 final against Leinster with Cóilín Duffy, Ulster winger Andrew Trimble said: "We really motivated for this game. People are talking about us being the best Ulster side in a few years, we had that record of 13 wins in a row at the start of the year. We want to win trophies, and there's no point having those records unless we back them up."
