Congrats to Clontarf Under 16's Team who won the Sean Stratton Cup Final last weekend at Kirwan Park, the home of De la Salle Palmerston.
21 teams participated over three weekends from Ulster, Leinster and Connaught in a blitz format competition.
Clontarf under 16's had not played together in the club since under 14 age level when they were runners up in the Leinster Schools Youth League.
This tournament was designed to bring Schools Junior Cup players back to their clubs with a view to them playing in under 17's competitions next season.

We'll keep you posted on the team's progress and wish them the best of luck!

When it comes to Club rugby, will 2012 be remembered as the year that the pendulum finally swung decisively eastwards...?
The All-ireland league started back in 1999 and has been dominated by Munster-based (mostly Limerick) clubs. After 21 seasons, Munster have produced the winner 17 times compared to just a brace each for Ulster and Leinster (Dublin).
This year, Dublin will produce the league winner. Of that there is no doubt, but which name will be on the trophy? St. Mary's have the advantage of being previous winners although 12 years have passed since that triumph. Clontarf…
The last time that Clontarf residents gathered in large numbers was last October and it was beside the Wooden Bridge. It provided a platform for a campaign against proposed flood defences that ultimately proved successful.
This coming Saturday, we need a similar show of strength from the people of Clontarf.
Our local rugby club have one finger on the All Ireland League trophy and a win against second placed St. Mary’s would almost certainly secure Clontarf’s first ever victory in the competition. This is also the last home match of the season and is a chance to acknowledge…
We were delighted to get the opportunity to pop down to Clontarf Rugby Club last weekend to see the last minute preparations for the Annual Breast Cancer Lunch.
The room was all kitted out ready for the influx of 160 hungry ladies and pink was very much the colour of the day.
We caught up with Shane Harnett and Niamh Rankin from the organising committee. They gave us the background to the event and told us what was in store for the day.

The money raised is still being counted and the presentation will be made to the charity on the 14th April…
Superb numbers turned out for Clontarf Rugby's Family Fun Day on 25th March last. Both young & old participated in some old fashioned family fun with Welly Chucking, Bull Bingo, Sumo, Bric-a-Brac, BBQ & lots more. Sponging the coaches proved to be the most popular of the day with kids & adults queuing to soak their favourite coach. The day was topped off nicely by some unexpected blistering sunshine.

The next big day out at the Club will be on Saturday week when St. Marys' travel to Clontarf for what looks like being a title showdown.
…Clontarf marched on in the Ulster Bank League with a well-deserved bonus-point victory at home to Garryowen.
The 47-18 win secures Clontarf's position at the top of the table and sets up a mouth-watering, top of the table clash against 2nd place St. Mary's in two weeks time, again at Castle Avenue.
Clontarf scorers on Saturday included Killian Lett, Adrian D'Arcy, Noel Reid and captain, Barry O'Mahony.
Well done to Andy Wood and his team who were clearly up for it on Saturday and here's hoping for a huge 'Tarf turnout for the big game on 14th April which is now looking…
