Shamrock Warriors RFC
In March 2011, the IRFU announced its support for Shamrock Warriors RFC. The clubs aim is to develop a pool of experienced 7's players for the IRFU to be in position to select to develop into a future international 7's squad to compete in tournaments by giving them experience playing in the top level competition should the IRFU become involved in professional international sevens or in the Olympic Sevens.67
