Parnells club notes

April 09, 2018

The Youth section held a fantastic open day combined with a farewell event to 'The Corrigan's' at Harrow Rugby Club on Easter Saturday.  The rain kept away long enough for the children to play a friendly mini 'Go Games' amongst themselves and enjoy the food and refreshments afterwards.  However, it was with mixed emotions we gathered to say goodbye to Colin, Fiona, Beanón, Brea and Aoibhe who are returning to Ireland.  Colin and Fiona have both been involved with Parnells Committee and coaching for a number of years and their drive, commitment and presence will be sorely missed as will the talented Beanón and Brea, fantastic players for Parnells who have also represented London.  We wish them well as one chapter closes and another begins.
