More girls are getting the chance to represent their school in rugby through adapted formats of the game and one school in Roscommon is showing how X Rugby 7's is proving successful in bringing new players to the sport and their local rugby club.

X Rugby 7's is an adapted format of the game played on a half pitch with reduced intensity contact. It's designed to introduce new players to the game. It's seven-a-side, which makes it easier to organise without a strong base of players, but still offers the fun and fitness associated with the game.

Convent Of Mercy Roscommon were among 13 schools and 20 teams taking part in Connacht’s Provincial X Rugby 7's Tournament for 2020. There are Junior and Senior competitions where teams can qualify for an All-Ireland tournament. X Rugby provides the only national competition for girls in Irish Rugby.
