Through Ophir's youth rugby development programme, six-weeks of rugby coaching was provided in each of the schools. The blitz day was the perfect opportunity for the students to show off their new skills.
Marianne Breen, Club Community Rugby Officer, said: "I‘m delighted with the progress these girls have made in such a short period of time. The smiles on their faces says it all."
