"We're all so delighted for the girls, their families, their coaches and everyone in the club. It is a great honour to lead the St Patrick's Day parade through our wonderful town and we look forward to a day when the community comes out to celebrate together. Our girls are wonderful ambassadors for our club and brilliantly illustrate the energy and enthusiasm of Ballina Rugby Club and the great community we're all blessed to be part of."
