A View from the Air, @CBCMonkstownpk from the Independent newspaper in 1956

1. Today, Cal Traynor Russel will don the green of Ireland as he represents the Ireland u18's Sevens team at the Rugby Europe U18 Boys 7s Championship. You can watch the games via the link below. He's in action at roughly 12:20 & 16:06 wearing Number 9⃣🇮🇪 youtube.com/watch?v=dvXVZm…

2. Charlie Meagher has been selected on the upcoming South Africa Tour for the Ireland u18's. His outstanding performances at the u18 Six Nations Festival earned him a spot on the plane and will fly out on the 8th of August. Here's a glimpse of the man in action 🇧🇪🇮🇪

3. Tom Reynolds started with the u18s Leinster Schools recently for their Summer Programme which will run for the next two months. Tom will be hoping to make the final squad for the Interprovincial Series in August. We wish him the best for the next few weeks

4. Five members of our JCT 23/24 Panel started their Summer Programme with the Leinster u17s this week. Wishing Neil Richardson, Conor Doyle, James Lambert, Conor O' Rourke and Daniel Murray the very best as they hope to be picked for a final Blitz at the end of the Summer

Congrats to Stephen Kinsella (CBC’96)

We offer our condolences and prayers to the family and friends of former Ireland international and member of @BectiveRangers Paddy O’Donoghue. A stalwart of the game who also played for @Barbarian_FC and was a respected administrator in the IRFU. May he rest in peace.

Wishing our SCT pair Charlie Meagher & Cal Traynor Russell the best of luck as they head into camp tomorrow with the Ireland u18's Squad. Hopefully we will see them both in action vs Wales in St Marys RFC at 1pm on Sunday. irishrugby.ie/2024/03/04/ire…
