Du Preez impressed by life in Limerick

LIMERICK received a tourism boost this week from an unexpected source. Munster’s new prop forward Wian Du Preez launched a one-man public relations campaign for the Treaty city and its surrounds.

In an interview in his native South Africa Du Preez said: “the lifestyle is great here. They have everything like top-class malls, shops and restaurants. I can only say positive things about my time here.

“It’s been great and I will do it again. I’m based in Limerick and really enjoy it. The people are lovely with nice places to visit and countryside around as well. It’s a lot bigger than where I come from. I got lost my first time in the city”
