OTB Rugby

Canterbury and Intersport Elvery's have launched a collection of limited-edition upcycled bags, made from the giant fan-signed Ireland Women's Rugby World Cup jersey that toured the country last summer.

With the Ireland Women's team back in HQ for their first training camp ahead of the 2026 Women's Six Nations, we got to sit down to chat to Ireland stars Dorothy Wall, Beibhinn Parsons, and Eve Higgins.

From the upcycled bags, getting over the World Cup, and building into the Six Nations, this OTB Exclusive is not to be missed!

And fancy a bag? They're available now on https://www.elverys.ie/collections/irfu-upcycled-giant-jersey-bags.
