PRESIDENT’S<br />

MESSAGE<br />

On behalf of Munster Rugby, I would like<br />

to welcome you all to today’s Pinergy<br />

Munster Schools Boys Senior Cup Final<br />

between <strong>Presentation</strong> <strong>Brothers</strong> <strong>College</strong> and<br />

<strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Brothers</strong> <strong>College</strong> in Virgin Media<br />

Park. This is a repeat of last year’s final and<br />

<strong>Presentation</strong> <strong>Brothers</strong> <strong>College</strong> were victorious<br />

on that occasion. This year’s final is of added<br />

significance as both schools are the proud<br />

winners of 31 titles each to date.<br />

The Pinergy Munster Schools Boys Senior Cup<br />

is one of our top competitions in age-grade<br />

rugby and has been contested for 115 seasons.<br />

It is eagerly anticipated by players, their<br />

families, coaches, supporters and past pupils<br />

of every participating school each season and<br />

it is one of the launchpads for our elite players<br />

and future interprovincial and international<br />

players.<br />

I wish to thank Enda Gunnell and his Pinergy<br />

team for the support and sponsorship of this<br />

competition. Their continued support and<br />

commitment is greatly appreciated.<br />

I would also like to thank Cathal Daly, the<br />

Schools Committee, along with James Neville,<br />

for organising and ensuring the completion of<br />

all schools fixtures.<br />

I am grateful to the Munster Association of<br />

Referees for their officiating at all schools<br />

games to date and I wish Andrew Brace, match<br />

referee, and touch judges Brían Bennett and<br />

Alex Aherne best wishes for today’s game.<br />

I would like to wish both teams the best of luck<br />

today and I am looking forward to an excellent<br />

game.<br />
