The first IQ Rugby events of 2021 have been confirmed as the pathway for Irish Qualified players gets back up and running in England.
IQ Rugby is kicking off with a series of events for male players born in 2004 and for adult female players in June and July across England.
Speaking about the events, Head of International Talent ID Joe Lydon said, “We’re pleased to announce the first IQ Rugby events for 2021 in England. It’s been a difficult year for everyone but we’re really excited about kick starting the journey for players who have the potential, drive and ambition to play professional rugby in or for Ireland.
“We will shortly be announcing additional dates and venues to provide similar opportunities for male and female IQ athlete’s in other Age Groups.
We’re hoping to see young lads who were born in 2004 at our male events and we’re delighted to be hosting four screening events for women. We recently saw Grace Moore make her debut for Ireland in the Women’s Six Nations and we hope to see more girls and women follow her path.”
