Deepest sympathies to Sean’s family, friends, and all his colleagues at Connacht Rugby. A true gentleman who will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
Connacht Rugby is today in mourning following the news that our friend and colleague, Seán Coppinger, has passed away following a short illness.
A native of Mervue in Galway City, Seán joined Connacht Rugby in 2015 and over the subsequent 11 years played an integral part in the day-to-day running of the organisation.
As a key member of the Operations team, Seán carried out his duties with tireless dedication, passion, and pride in his work.
Above all else, his warmth and kindness made him a cherished member of the Connacht Rugby family and he will be missed by everyone who worked with him over the years.

Fantastic late win on the road for @connachtrugby.. Massive 6 minutes from Shane Jennings when he came in on the 74th min.. Two great tries from Ciaran Crawley on his debut. Replacements made big impact..

25 years ago today, Charlestown Sarsfields defeated Knockmore after a replay to win the Moclair Cup for just the second time and first in 99 years.
We remember those no longer with us for whom it meant so much.
