It’s a huge honour—and a deeply personal one—for me to welcome you to St Mary’s College RFC as we celebrate 125 years of this incredible club. I’ve proudly been a member since 1998, and rugby has been part of my life for over 40 years. When I lost my father at 13, it was the rugby community that stepped in—giving me a sense of belonging, mentorship, and strength. That same spirit lives on in St Mary’s today, and it’s what makes this club so special.
