22 Aug Leinster Debut Delight for Maggie Kerin in Belfast Victory
Congratulations to Navan RFC’s Maggie Kerin who officially earned her first cap for the Leinster Under-18 Girls!
Maggie entered the action off the bench at Affidea Stadium (Ravenhill), putting in a fantastic shift as Leinster secured a hard-fought 39-27 victory over Ulster in the opening match of the afternoon double-header.
Her clubmate Emma O’Rourke, who was a key figure in the opening two rounds, was rested for the trip up north as she recovers from an injury.
