Munster stars spread some Christmas cheer
IN supporting a host of club, school, charity and community initiatives, Munster players and staff have made their way across the province in recent weeks.
A host of Munster Rugby stars brought some Christmas joy to a six-year-old fighting a life-threatening illness at Limerick’s Dreamland.
Munster fan Ben Reidy, 6, from Clare, had his dreams come true by meeting five players from the team, who helped him to celebrate his birthday at the Share a Dream facility. Alex Wootton, Jaco Taute, Rhys Marshall, Sammy Arnold and Jean Kleyn all turned out to support Ben for his birthday celebrations.

Munster’s Greencore Academy players and coaches recently visited the Mid-West Simon Community warehouse on the Dock Road to support their volunteer effort as they helped pack 500 bags of food parcels which were distributed to people in need across the mid-west during the Christmas period.
