Grosvenor put 31 unanswered points on Holywood in Q2, in Q3 Limavady 47 v Strabane NIL! BHSFP put 67 on YM, Inst 2s put 40 on CI 3s, Coleraine 3 55 v Ballyclare 3s nil, just take a look at the youth teams below and a number of scores stand out!
Ulster Grassroots rugby combines quantity in numbers with quality coaching and committed players in an atmosphere where the dogged determination of players is legendary, these players concentrate on the moment to moment objective executing the required objective with ever increasing certainty of purpose, speed and excitement. When they score they are right back across the to their half assuming positions their kicker converts and they commence the game again, its incredible to watch!
