Tullamore Tag Rugby Keg Competition


Teams had great fun at annual competition in memory of late Ronnie Walsh
On Saturday afternoon Tullamore Rugby Club hosted the 13th instalment of the Ronnie Walsh (Keg) Memorial Tag Rugby Competition.
The weather couldn’t have been better for the 11 teams that turned out to compete for the Keg Cup.
It was wonderful to have Ronnie's sisters Verona & Marguerite, and his brother Eddie present to present the trophies and say a few words about the man himself.
On the pitch there was some great entertainment. The weather took its toll on the teams, who all played 4 group games and then a final.
Congratulations to Keepa Akinfenwa (Handoffs Unlimited) for taking the Male Player of the tournament & to Vicky Carey (Cronins Barbarians) for picking up the Female Player of the tournament award.
Final Results:
Cup: Handoffs Unlimited 16.10 Fat Geese
Plate: Spuds Army 20.10 Gaggin For a Taggin
Shield: Taggin & Shaggin 10.8 Cronins Barbarians
Bowl: Sticky Fingers 12.6 All Tagged Out

Thanks to all the Captains for organising their teams & to everyone who turned up to play & help out on Saturday.
See you all next year!
