Our J2 side get their league campaign underway this Sunday with a big local derby against Ballinasloe.

It’s a great chance for the lads to start the season on the front foot, but they’ll know they’ll have to earn everything against familiar opposition.

Local derbies always bring a little extra edge, and we’d love to see plenty of support on the sideline as the J2s begin their league journey.

🏉 CURLEY CUP BOWL FINAL – FIXTURE CANCELLED

Unfortunately, Ballina RFC have been unable to field a team for tomorrow’s Curley Cup Bowl Final and have conceded the fixture.

While we’re disappointed not to have the opportunity to contest the final on the pitch, we respect Ballina’s position.

We’d like to thank everyone who had planned to travel to Castlebar to support the lads. Your continued support is greatly appreciated.
