As a nation, we enjoy nothing more than celebrating our local sporting heroes.
Far too often though, the accomplishments of our younger athletes go by unnoticed.
At Sportsbeat, we're determined to give every athlete a voice and the following achievement is truly remarkable.
Beth and Henry Buttimer are sporting siblings that share the unique accomplishment of making their international rugby debuts within a week of each other.
It is the first time that this have ever occurred in the Country.
I've spoken with both and provided a platform for their story to be told.
None of this success can be possible without a solid foundation for children to develop, however.
I've also spoken with Mark Keller, the mini's age group coordinator for Waterpark Rugby Club.
Mark is heading a tremendous initiate to allow girls aged from U8 - U14 an opportunity to 'give it a try' with Rugby.
The Waterpark Rugby Club's 'give it a try' is underway from May 3rd and all are welcome.
