Munster Rugby Golf Classic 2015

The fifteenth annual Munster Rugby Golf Classic took place at The Heritage Golf Resort & Spa in Killenard in Co. Laois on Monday last.

In all, 30 teams of three took advantage of perfect playing conditions on the day before returning to the clubhouse for a complimentary drinks reception, kindly sponsored by Diageo, followed by dinner and prize presentations.

Munster players Robin Copeland, Ronan O’Mahony and new signing Francis Saili were also in attendance and joined Senior Vice President of Munster Branch, Gerry O’Shea, in presenting the tournament prizes which were also sponsored by Diageo. See further pictures below.

Munster Rugby CEO Garrett Fitzgerald took the opportunity to thank all those in attendance for their continued support as well as Diageo for their generous sponsorship on the day. Fitzgerald also complimented The Heritage, their staff and grounds keepers for their exceptional course and service on the day.
