What a special day at Greystones RFC Mini Rugby! ๐
This year, we were proud to introduce a new tradition - naming our Player of the Year awards in honour of those who helped build and shape our mini section. It was a fantastic way to recognise the legacy of coaches and volunteers who gave so much to the club over the years.
๐ U10 Girls โ The Paul & Miriam Mahon Award, presented with Sinead Mahon representing the family
๐ U12 Girls โ The Jo & Rory OโConnor Award, presented by Rory, who shared heartfelt words about Joโs lasting impact on minis rugby, there with sons Paul and David.
๐ U10 Boys โ The Bob Willis Award, presented by Bobโs son, Shane Willis. Hard luck as well to Bobโs grandson, Ben, who was in action for the U16s this afternoon and narrowly lost out to Seapoint in their semi-final
๐ U11 Boys โ The Bernard Rogan Award, presented by Bernards wife, Lorraine Rogan and joined by family. We also send our best wishes to Bernardโs grandson, former Greystones mini player James Nicholson, for a speedy recovery from surgery โ we hope to see him back playing with Connacht soon ๐ช
๐ U12 Boys โ The Tim Harnett Award, presented by Tim, alongside his son Michael
A huge thank you to all the coaches, parents, organisers, and Club President Liam Murphy for their continued support and contribution to the mini section.
And finally, a special word of thanks to Tom Nolan for ensuring everything ran so smoothly.
Days like this remind us what Greystones RFC is all about - community, family, and rugby for all, well done to all the boys and girls who represent the club with honour๐
