Ulster Are Winners On and Off the Pitch

Celtic Cup holders and League title contenders Ulster will see their supporters rewarded tonight when Keith Grainger will present a special Celtic silver salver in recognition of that support

With the Celtic Cup already safely on display at Ravenhill and Andy Ward’s team just a point behind Celtic League leaders Llanelli Scarlets with two
rounds to go, tonight it will be the turn of the loyal
Ulster supporters to be rewarded.

Ulster have posted the highest average attendance for Celtic Rugby
matches
this season – over 80,000 will have gone through the turnstiles come
tomorrow night’s virtual sell-out final home game, against Leinster
Lions.

And to mark their average crowd of almost 7,000, Celtic Rugby
Tournament
Director Keith Grainger will present a special Celtic silver salver
to the
Irish province before the kick-off.

To involve those responsible for the award, the presentation will be
made
to half a dozen fans chosen at random from the crowd who have
contributed
to the honour going to Ireland ahead of the second best supported
team,
Llanelli Scarlets, and the 5,700 average who have turned out for
Celtic
Rugby matches at Stradey Park.
