Sundays Well Rebels made it through to the showpiece Men’s Cup final at IMART 2022 on Friday evening. It was a thrilling affair, won by the hosts against a formidable Oshawa Vikings outfit.

Danny Lynch and James Healy combined to put the rebels on the front foot early in the first half which ultimately lead to Scrum Half Eoin O’Connell sniping over for the opening try.

Vikings hit a purple patch shortly before the break with Malcolm Hooper leading the charge. The Canadians even managed to cross the line twice but some brave defence held them up and kept the score 5-0 at half time.

Richard Philpott emptied the tank for the Rebels in the second half and it led to a huge carry from Stephen Carroll under the posts. That committed Viking’s defence and created the space for Mick Moynihan to score the rebels’ second try.

Toby Ware was one of the stars of the tournament and he showed just why late in the game. Combining with Stuart McReynolds, the Vikings winger took possession outside the 22 and pumped his legs all the way to the line for a score that had the whole stadium on their feet. It finished Sundays Well 10-5 Oshawa Vikings in a moment that summed up the spirit of the whole week.

“My hope would be that this is only the start,” says IRFU Disability & Inclusion Officer David McKay, himself a volunteer and player with the Malone Tornadoes.
