We are beyond honoured and grateful to have won the overall prize for our 150 community day held in the club last March.
Our club relies on the community and volunteers with countless people giving up their time and energy each week to keep the club ticking, and we are so proud to have our efforts recognised.
Huge thanks to everyone involved in what had been one of many incredible days held in Kilballyowen over the years. This video represented everything great about Bruff Rugby and the values we hold within the club. Congratulations to all involved!

Congratulations to Bruff RFC for their video which showcased the outstanding work taking place in their Club and exemplified the spirit of rugby in their community.
As part of this initiative, all Clubs were encouraged to open their doors beyond their existing membership to showcase the best of Irish rugby on their social channels.
Specially commissioned IRFU 150 flags and gift packs were distributed to clubs across the island of Ireland to help add some vibrancy and colour to the activities.
The Munster club will receive a €5,000 prize to mark their efforts to showcase the story of their Club.
The IRFU would like to acknowledge all of the excellent submissions which were shared across IRFU Grassroots page on Instagram in recent weeks. Our thanks to the Clubs for their efforts on this submission and for all their hard work in growing the Game nationally.
