Kinsale gears up to host Munster's British and Irish Cup clash with Yorkshire

Kinsale RFC president Peter Elliot believes the club will benefit hugely from hosting Friday’s British and Irish Cup clash between Munster A and Yorkshire Carnegie (8pm).

Munster lost their first round tie against London Scottish by two points in Richmond last Friday and will be desperate to secure victory in front of their home fans.

“It’s a huge day for the club and it’s a great opportunity to showcase Kinsale rugby,” said Elliot. “It will greatly benefit the club’s profile. We want to show our supporters and newcomers that we can put on a good show.”
