Our 15s were in McCarthy Cup action yesterday, as part of our commitment to increasing playing standards and improving our Rugby offering the resident drone got its first outing Staff member Luke was on hand to capture a bird's eye view of our first try Well done to all #ofwff

The U15 As have moved to the top of the McCarthy Cup table after yesterday’s 46-12 win over Castletroy College. The Bs also had a comfortable win, 30-0 to get their league off to a winning opening day start.

1st week in Sept and we had our opening school fixture. The U15s welcomed @CCRoscrea to Corbally. Well over 30 young fellows got game time before the start of McCarthy Cup as we got the year off to a winning start.

Some try from the @stmunchins men with plenty of @BallinaKillalo1 influence too Tom Wood grubber kick to the on rushing Oisin Minogue with a fine displace of his ‘delicate’ soccer skills honed on the school yard.

Key interventions from Tom Wood with penalties and a last gasp Oisin Minogue try were not enough to give Ireland the win in their 2nd U20 World Cup group match against Italy. Best of luck in the final match lads. youtu.be/B7IMXWh1kds

Best of luck to Tom Wood who’s been selected at 10 for the Ireland U20s v Georgia. A proud graduate of @BallinaKillalo1 and @stmunchins

Well done to the U15 who won the Trophy final in this weeks Terenure festival. Top quality fixtures against Terenure, Belvedere, Clongowes, St Gerard’s and Wesley over the space of 2 days. Captain Charlie Doran accepting the Cup.

Great too see another recent 🔴⚫️🔵 graduate make the Ireland U20s. @stmunchins
