Since 2003 the Newbridge RFC ‘Legend in Rugby’ Awards has grown to be an exciting event in the Irish Rugby Calendar. This year Newbridge RFC are celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Ireland’s historic Triple Crown win in 1985.
Memories of Ciaran Fitzgerald’s rallying cry to the troops in the dying minutes of the Triple Crown decider against England “Come on lads, where’s your effing pride ?” and Michael Kiernan’s last minute drop goal to beat England in Lansdowne Road come flooding back.
To relive these memories join us for what promises to be a great rugby night on Friday 19th March at 7pm.
The venue is Hotel Keadeen, Newbridge, Co. Kildare, dress is black tie and tickets cost €100 each or €1,000 for a table of 12.
