Mini & Youth Rugby in Old Wesley
We welcome all from 6 years to 6 Nations and many of our former Minis players have gone onto great things, most recently Andrew Porter, of Leinster & Ireland, being picked for the initial British & Irish Lions Squad to South Africa this year and Ryan Baird receiving the first of many Senior Caps.
We have current Youths players who recently represented Leinster Metro U15s and very recently Tom Larke, who was in that group, has now been selected for the Irish Clubs U18s.
We are currently running Minis teams from U6/U7s to U12s and Youths teams from U13 to U18.5 We are also very proud to have started a Girls’ Section for U8s upwards during the summer this year. It must be noted that we also welcome all to play in the Minis section no matter the gender as the teams are combined through U12s.
We train and play between three venues:
- Ballycorus, Kilternan, Co. Dublin,
- Energia Stadium Donnybrook, Dublin 4, and
- Wesley College, Ballinteer, Dublin 16.
