🌍🏉 WORLD CUP COUNTDOWN MEET PAUL WILSON! 🇮🇪
With the Tag World Cup in Australia now only days away, we’ve been sharing profiles of our GB players, but we also have a player representing Ireland! ☘️
Paul Wilson has been playing tag for a number of years and has been a fantastic addition to our league, both on and off the pitch. Now, he’s getting ready to take on the world stage! 🌏🔥
Here’s Paul’s tag journey so far…
🏉 Paul started playing tag in 2021 at Alan Higgs, looking for a competitive outlet after having to give up Rugby Union. What started as a fun alternative quickly became much more!
➡️ In 2022, he moved to Leamington to play A League before stepping up to Men’s Open, where he spent three years competing.
💪 In 2026, Paul moved into Men’s 37s and took on the captaincy.
☘️ His hard work and dedication paid off when he was selected to represent Ireland in Mixed Seniors in 2026, playing two tests at the B&I before earning his place in the Ireland World Cup squad!
🇮🇪 The World Cup challenge awaits!
Paul and Ireland will face New Zealand, Fiji, France, Hong Kong and Australian Indigenous in the group stages.
The team will spend five days in Sydney before heading up to Coffs Harbour for the tournament. 🌊🏆
Everyone at the league is incredibly proud of Paul and can’t wait to see him represent Ireland on the world stage. We wish him and the whole Ireland squad the very best of luck! 💚☘️
Go well, Paul! Bring it on! 👏🔥
