Munster Rugby are set to host Barbarians at Thomond Park in a historic double-header for the province, with their Women’s and Men’s teams both facing the Baa Baas on Saturday, September 30.
The back-to-back Vodafone Women’s Interprovincial champions will get the action underway at 2pm, while the Munster Men’s side will kick off at 4.30pm.
A festival of rugby awaits in what will be a great family occasion for the Limerick venue, having last hosted the Barbarians back in November 2017.
It was on the same day that history was created as the first ever Barbarian’s women’s fixture took place, with Munster providing the opposition.
While this will be the first time the Men’s teams face each other, the world’s most famous invitational outfit previously played Tonga and Ireland on their visits to Thomond Park.
The occasion will see players secure valuable game-time ahead of the respective domestic seasons, commencing with an exciting showcase of attacking, adventurous rugby in store for supporters.
