ICURFC take on Movember

As rugby players we are all about stash. By this we usually mean rugby kit. However, this month the focus is on cultivating a different kind of ‘stache. A Movember one. “Classic, another group of people idly taking part in a fruitless activity whilst trying to justify it with the pretence of charity,” you think as you scan the rest of the article, noting the collage of ongoing efforts.

So, I encourage you to un-stiffen that upper lip and support this fan-tache-tic cause! To support the men’s rugby team’s ongoing efforts, you can donate at moteam.co/icurfc. Thank you!
