Q. 2
The first game in Qualifying Two kicks off this weekend at Blaris when host club Lisburn entertain newly promoted Holywood. Lisburn coach Mark Crothers enters his third season in charge hoping to build on his progress in developing a competitive playing squad. He is in the unique position of having four brothers playing on the 1st xv. They include David, Aaron, Mark and Jonathan Gilkinson who are all ex pupils of Wallace High School. David, Aaron and Mark all played for Ulster Schools with Mark turning out for the Ulster under 20s last season. What a talented sporting family. Hooker Peter Graham will again Captain the side with ex Methody out half Ross Edgar a key player. Holywood coach Laurence Kelly has taken over the reins at the North Down club after a successful period coaching at Larne. His squad competed well at the Randalstown fifteen a side tournament last weekend as they prepared for their league campaign. Their Captain and scrum half Rory Eaves will be a key player for them this season.
Kick off is 2.30 pm on Sat 6th September 2014.
