This Monday the 23rd of April the Connacht Clan will be hosting a table quiz in "The Hall" in Busker Browne's (upstairs). There will be great prizes on offer and a chance to pit yourselves against the Connacht Rugby Player's Team. The quiz will be a general knowledge quiz so you do not need to worry about non-rugby loving friends being left out in the cold. Later in the evening the winners of the Connacht Clan Player of the Season and Young Player of the Season will be announced. A table of four is only €40, and good craic is guaranteed.

Player's Forum
The Connacht Clan are hosting their second ever Player's Forum after the Aironi match this weekend.
The event will take place in the Clan Bar, directly after the match. It will be an open forum with questions taken directly from the audience, so it is your chance to find out what the players think of the season, the direction of Connacht Rugby and what their favourite colour socks are. The Connacht Clan learned a lot from their first Player's Forum, namely that speakers are not best placed on the ground, so we have secured some speaker poles to ensure that the audio travels a little further this time around!
Hall of Fame
The Connacht Clan are opening their Hall of Fame with 2 very worthy candidates. These players will the first in hopefully a long line of inductees into the Connacht Clan Hall of Fame. The presentation will take place after the Player's Forum on Saturday, so come along to find out who the first inductees are.
