Westport R F C is moving into the 21st Century

After very successful Mayo News Summer tag tournament, Westport Rugby Football Club are glad to announce the launch of the first womens rugby team who have had their second squad training session on Thursday last under the watchful eye of Connacht RDO Eammon Molloy.

The team will be coached by Connacht RDO staff over the coming weeks giving them a great foundation in rugby skills.

The team will be looking to play matches in September and are planning a trip to a Dublin club during the six nations tournament early in the new year .

After the success of the Mayo News Summer Tag Rugby League 2007, it is proposed to start a womens Rugby Team in Westport. If there is enough interest, training would commence in September with games starting shortly after that. The team would be affiliated to Westport RFC and would have use of the facilities of Westport RFC in Carrowholly.
