Sunday’s Well Rebels home after week to remember

Over the weekend, the Sunday’s Well Rebels, Ireland’s only mixed ability rugby team, returned home to Cork after their successful Mixed Ability Rugby World Tournament campaign in the UK.

The Rebels beat the host team, the Bradford and Bingley Bumble Bees, in a thrilling final on Friday.

In the run up to the event, the IRFU took to Twitter to wish the Rebels well. Irish players Simon Zebo, Tommy Bowe, Peter O’Mahony and Jordi Murphy also expressed their support. In a video message played on the bus to the grounds, Zebo told the team, “I just want to wish ye the best of luck in the final. Congrats on getting there, but you still have one game to go. We’re all rooting for ye.”
