Clare’s Marcus Horan is to be inducted into the Rugby Players Ireland Hall of Fame
The Clonlara native played 67 times for his country and was part of the 2009 Grand Slam winning squad.
He also won two Heineken Cups with Munster.
Known for his consistency and durability, Horan was revered for his work ethic and commitment to the team, playing a vital role in Munster’s forward dominance throughout the 2000s. In his current role, Horan continues to give back to the game through his role as Rugby Players Ireland’s Player Development Manager with Munster Rugby.
On the announcement, Horan commented: “It’s a real privilege to be recognised alongside such incredible players in Irish rugby history. Rugby has given me everything – lifelong friends, unforgettable moments, and a deep sense of belonging. To be inducted into the Hall of Fame is a wonderful way to reflect on those times with those closest to me.”
Donnacha O’Callaghan and Lynne Cantwell will also be honoured at the ceremony in Dublin on Friday November 15th.
