Ireland winger Craig Gilroy relishing Sevens heaven in Kinsale

The Heineken Kinsale Sevens has been endorsed by Irish international Craig Gilroy, one of the scoring heroes of the RBS Six Nations victory in Rome earlier this year.

Gilroy showed sevens-like prowess in grabbing a hat-trick of tries in the second half of Ireland’s huge victory over Italy, and last night he was in the town to officially launch the 29th tournament, which takes place over the May Bank Holiday weekend.

Gilroy was the perfect fit to launch such an event given his success in scoring tries at the highest level.
