Old Belvedere Juniors: J2 & J3 Teams – Rugby for All (Aged 18–60)
Welcome to the home of Old Belvedere’s J2 and J3 teams—where rugby meets fun, fitness, and friendship for everyone aged 18 to 60!
Whether you’re a seasoned player, a returning legend, or a total newbie looking to give rugby a go, the J2 and J3 squads are the perfect place to enjoy the game at your own pace. We pride ourselves on being a welcoming, social, and competitive group—where the craic off the field is just as important as the action on it. #oldbelvedererfcjuniors
What’s on Offer?
Two teams:
- J2: For those who like their rugby fast and competitive, but still enjoy a non-dietary requirement for Monday-Friday, and the suggestion of a Hyrox membership is banned.
- J3: The best mix of social rugby and friendly competition—think of it as rugby as it should be, and the physio tape budget is written on a blank cheque.
Age range: 18–60. Whether you’re fresh out of school, in the prime of life, or looking for a reason to dust off your boots, you’ll fit right in. There is no such thing as retirement.
All abilities welcome. Never played before? No problem! Haven’t played since school? Pilates doesn’t come with Pints you know…Just want to get fit and meet new people? Fitness is a subjective. Why be fast, when you can run it straight… whatever your level, we’ve got you covered.
Perks for players:
- Unlimited access to our high-performance gym
- Match day gear as standard
- 10% off at the Clubhouse Bar (because hydration is important)
- Free physio for those inevitable “old war wounds”
Why Join?
- Weekly training sessions with plenty of laughs, 7 pm in Ollie Campbell Park.
- Regular matches in the Leinster Metro Rugby Leagues
- Social events, team nights out, and legendary post-match celebrations
- A supportive, inclusive squad who play for the love of the game
If you’re aged 18–60 and want to play rugby, have a bit of fun, and be part of a great group, come down to Old Belvedere and get involved. Rugby is for everyone—so why not make some new friends, get fit, and enjoy the best of what club rugby has to offer?
