Hi George

Hope all is well!  

This is Coach Mark Hanrahan of Franciscan University Rugby, Irish Rugby Tour of
March 2011.  

Just a little bit of advertisement on your behalf, just six short months after FUS
Rugby participated on your tour and had 3 games and 3 clinics, we have
taken what we learned (especially with Tony Smeeth!) and become the #1
team in the county in Division 3 Rugby.  

We have qualified for the National Championship on April 28/29 at Infinity Park
in Colorado (USA's premier Rugby Stadium).  

I wish we had the money to come back and train in Ireland over Spring Break
this March, but that is not possible due to the fact we need to fund-raise
$50,000 to get to Colorado for Nationals.  

Just wanted to tip my hat to Irish Rugby Tours and what you are doing
is making a HUGE difference for teams who take the time and
make the investment!!

PS - I was cheering for Ireland in World Cup, what a bummer:(
