South Side Irish Rugby
The South Side Irish was founded by Gene Moriarity in 1975 in the Beverly neighborhood along with the Kennelly Brothers Art, Joe and Kevin. Our club is a social and athletic organization which has grown from the initial 15 players to a club with thousands of past and current members. Highlights include a second place finish in Division 2 Nationals in 2002, fifth place in Division 2 Nationals in 2004 and fifth place in Division 1 National Championships in 2006.
