CONNACHT LEAGUE Div. J1A

Sligo RFC 5, Creggs RFC 18.

Well done to the Creggs First squad on another very good Connacht League win away in Sligo on Sunday afternoon last.

Brian Donohue goes high to secure Cregg’s possession v Sligo

Creggs second-row Brian Donohue goes high to secure possession from Maurice Buckley’s throw against Sligo away last Sunday.

It was a really good performance, particularly in defence from all 20 players in the panel against a strong Sligo team. Well done to all.

With over 40 players having fielded for the first team so far this season, and the Sunday game saw eight changes from the previous weekend’s win over Westport. This shows that the strength in depth that has been building in recent years.

Creggs Rugby is currently top of the J1 League (the top division).

As we enter the Connacht League December break, next Sunday, the action switches for the Creggs First team to the Cawley Cup Final v Castlebar RFC in Crowley Park (Galwegians) in Galway, with 4.30 kick-off.

This is a competition that Creggs has won on the last two occasions and been undefeated in four years he best of luck to all the lads as they go for three in-a-row Cawley Cups.
