History:

How did it all start? Well, like many things in life, it started modestly - in 1988 with only 12 teams, but such was the enthusiasm of all who participated, there was no going back! Nowadays we have in excess of 80 teams playing in various mens and ladies tournaments throughout the weekend making it Irelands largest rugby 7's tournament.
