Rugby World Cup 2023

2,000 tag rugby players and their entourage from 20 nations descend on the University of Limerick campus for the four-day event which gets under way on August 2 ...

The tournament was due to take place in 2021 but was delayed due to travel restrictions caused by the pandemic. International Tag Federation Board Member Simon Bewley added: “There is a huge contingent travelling from the South Hemisphere and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Irish public to see the best taggers in the world compete”. THE first tag rugby World Cup to be held in the northern hemisphere will kick-off in Limerick next August
