Bangor Rugby Club Youth Bangor Rugby Mini's

The Rugby section and Club AGMs will now be held on Wednesday 1st July 2026.

Following the sad news of the passing of Denny Neill at the weekend, and as a mark of respect, it has been decided to postpone both the Rugby and Club AGMs until Wednesday 1st July. Rugby AGM will be held at 7:30pm and club AGM at 8pm.

It is with sadness that we learned of the recent passing of club stalwart Denis (Denny) Neill on 21st June, following a short illness.

Denny was a true Upritchard Park man. He was a faithful touchline supporter, generous sponsor, flag-hoister and provider (twice, in fact, after the first flag was stolen), and scoreboard operator (having also donated it). It must have been in his blood, as it was his father, Jack, who had been instrumental in making the introduction to the original landowner for the purchase of land that would eventually become Upritchard Park. Away from the pitch, Denny was the ultimate ‘meeter and greeter’, welcoming visitors and chatting to players, no matter their age or standing. He never had a bad word to say to anybody, and his friendly demeanour was loved by all who knew him.

Following a private family committal, a Service of Thanksgiving will take place St Columbanus Parish Church, Ballyholme on Monday 29 June at 2:00pm.

Donations, if desired, to NIPANC (NI Pancreatic Cancer) and/or Marie Curie may be made online at https://sclarkeandson.co.uk/donate.

🏌️‍♂️BANGOR RFC GOLF DAY 2026🏌️‍♂️

The rugby season might be over, but the competitive nonsense certainly isn’t…

Dust off the clubs, dig out that golf polo you’ve convinced yourself makes you look like Rory McIlroy, and join us for the annual Bangor RFC Golf Day at Bangor Golf Club on Friday 31st July.

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer, a fair-weather hacker, or a prop forward who’s only there for the meal and the pints afterwards, you’re more than welcome.

🏌️ Tee times from 12:30pm
💷 £25 Bangor Golf Club Members
💷 £45 Non-Members
🍽️ Includes green fee, meal and prize contribution
🏆 Plenty of prizes up for grabs

Expect:
⛳ Sliced drives into neighbouring postcodes
⛳ Dubious scorecards
⛳ Unsolicited swing advice from men who shot 112
⛳ Claims of “I used to be decent at golf”
⛳ The usual Bangor RFC levels of slagging

Most importantly, it’s a great chance to get the squad, old faces, club members and friends together for a cracking day out.

Get your four-ball sorted, start stretching muscles you forgot existed, and prepare to discover that golf is somehow even more frustrating than rugby.

For tee times and more information, contact Stephen Montgomery on 07850 048208.
