What is going on in rugby in Ireland in June?


I'm going to be travelling to Ireland in late June. I want to at least watch a match while I'm there, but it seems like most of the seasons are out by then. Is anything else going on that I can't find?

I am from ireland and I am pretty sure you will not find any rugby here in June. Tag- rugby is about it!
However you should definetly attend a G.A.A match, I don't know where you are travelling from or how much you know about the G.A.A, but it defitely is an experience worth having.
You can watch Rugby on t.v any time or attend matches in your home country but the G.A.A are Irelands unique sports and are a wonderful sporting experience aswell as a good opputunity to experience irish culture.
urling and Gaelic football are the two main sports of the G.A.A, both are fast tempoed and enjoyable for spectators, details on matches will be easily available in local media when you get here, also don't worry about tickets, as June is not at the height of season matches will not be sold out ( unless Dublin are playing). If possible you should try to attend a match in the wonderful stage that is Croke Park.


edit: having read some of the amswers below me ,
1. yes you could go to watch the Churchill cup but it is no texactly of the highest standard and like he said its not in Ireland.
2. the Irish team are playing but in Argentina!
3. I would'nt bother booking tickets for G.A.A matches on ticketmaster, it will be cheaper to pay at the gate.
4. Going to leinster or munsters sites will not help as there will be no club or provincial rugby in June.

The GAA(Hurling and gaelic football) matches would be in full swing go to www.ticketmaster.ie thats where you can buy tickets for the events maybe you might be able to find rugby tickets there aswell?? otherwise go to www.irishrugby.ie for more information about matches. If your not looking for international matches then go to www.munsterrugby.ie or www.leinsterrugby.ie for schedules of matches between clubs and provincal rugby etc. around this time. ;-)
