Ulster Rugby Branch Coach Development Officer Brian O’Shaughnessy recently ran a Leprechaun Rugby Coaching Course for Springboard Opportunities at the Shaftsbury Recreation Centre just off the Lower Ormeau Road.
Leprechaun Rugby is a fast and exciting modified-contact game of ‘touch’ or ‘tag’ rugby designed to assist general physical development, to play an important role in ‘games concepts’ programmes and to introduce the game of Rugby Union to children in a very simplified form.
