Youth
The U15s have now merged with the U17s and will continue to train as normal on Tuesday nights from 7 – 8.30pm.
This decision was taken to help both teams with their rugby development and ensure regular rugby for those who want to continue playing for Ards.
Mini
The Minis played in a Blitz at Belmont Park on Sunday and came away feeling very chuffed with their days endeavors.
This was a great opportunity for the young ‘Ardsmen and girls’ to play short games against varied opposition as they continue to develop their rugby skills.
Our thanks are extended to CIYMS for hosting the event and we look forward to more exchanges throughout the season.
