Elwood keen for Connacht to finish season on a high

There’s a positive buzz around Connacht rugby at the moment.

At underage level there are more players than ever enjoying the sport. Regionally, too, the game has developed, with clubs starting to spring up outside the traditional Galway base.

Likewise the province’s flagship has been guaranteed Heineken Cup rugby next year and the season ticket record set this year will easily be beaten before the start of the 2012/13 campaign.
