Thinking Of Playing Rugby ?

Rugby football in Ireland is administered on a local level through the respective provincial Branches, Leinster (east), Munster (south), Connacht (west) and Ulster (north). Rugby playing clubs and schools in these areas must be affiliated to the appropriate branch and are then answerable to that Branch in all matters.

Anyone wishing to take up the game at any level therefore, must join an affiliated club or school and listed below are the contact details of the four Branches where personnel will be able to supply information about what clubs or schools are in the your area.
