Balbriggan kicked off the new season by winning the inaugural Beachy Cup at Boyne RFC this afternoon. The Cup is a memorial to the late John ‘Beachy’ McCreanor from Ardee and of Boyne Rugby Club, who died in 2012. Clubs from the North-East; Ardee, Athboy, North Meath, Ratoath, Swords and Balbriggan all took part. It was a great afternoon of rugby with Balbriggan edging out a very strong North Meath 8 v 0 in the final. Thanks to Boyne RFC for hosting this very successful competition and to Beachy’s family for presenting this beautiful memorial trophy.
