Connacht back in the big time again next season

With both Ulster and Leinster through to this year's Heineken Cup final on May 19 an Irish winner is guaranteed leaving the door open for Connacht to qualify as the fourth team from Ireland. This comes as a huge boost to the club which finished off their first ever Heineken Cup this year with a memorable victory over Harlequins in the Sportsground.

The advent of top flight European rugby in the west of Ireland has seen major changes both within the Sportsground and throughout Galway as thousands of supporters flocked to the city to see Connacht take on the giants like Harlequins, Gloucester and Toulouse. Due to the exceptional demand to see some of Europe's greatest teams in the Sportsground, Connacht Rugby season tickets remain the only way to guarantee entry to the three home pool matches, as well as all 11 of Connacht's home RaboDirect PRO12 games. With limited availability and some sections nearly sold out already, supporters are urged to purchase their season tickets early to ensure they can be part of the next step in Connacht Rugby's history. Season tickets are available for purchase online at www.connachtrugby.ie or from the Connacht Rugby ticket office in the Sportsground, College Road, Galway.
