WELCOME TO TALLAGHT RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB
Tallaght Rugby Club was set up in 2002 as part of the “Tallaght Project”, an IRFU initiative designed to introduce rugby in non-traditional areas. It initially started running underage teams and focused on introducing the game into schools in the area. In 2006 we set up our first senior team and have been competing ever since in the Leinster League at J4 level. This season we have also run a Under-19 team and will shortly be starting teams at Under-12 & Under 14.
Tallaght Rugby Club is a community club and everyone is welcome to get involved whether as a player, coach or as a supporter. We're always recruiting new players and everyone is welcome to come down to training, even if they have never played before. Many of our players only took up the game recently but they adapted quickly to the new game.
Tallaght's home ground is The Postal Club in Kiltipper (see Map/Directions link).
Pre-Season Training Starting back on Tuesday 6th July from 7PM sharp on the pitch. Get to the dressing room at 6.50 if you need time to get changed. You need to be on the pitch ready to train at 7.00.
All newcomers welcome! Regardless of lack of experience or fitness levels, everyone who's interested is welcome to train with us.
Anyone interested in getting involved in the club at any level can find contact details on the contact page of this website.
AGM will be held on Tuesday 15th of June 2010 in the Postal.

Club Song
"Don't Stop Believing!" by Journey
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=barLaHrtvoM
Don't Stop Believin' lyrics (new recruits must learn!)
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Dont Stop!!
