To find Clane rugby club. 1st, to find Clane, it's roughly between Naas RFC & North Kildare RFC. Zoom into the centre of the town where several roads meet. Imagine you were entering from the Celbridge Road, take the second right as you hit Clane onto the Ballinagappa Road, go a very short distance, maybe 300m and go past the first cross roads (where you could turn into an estate), take the next left, then immediately left again, you will see the soccer club house on your right. Go down the dirt track 150m and swing right to the club house. You should be able to locate it on the google map and mark it.

Thanks for the info. Can you just check that I've got the right place :)

Hey Limecat, Bective's spare pitch is situated half-way up Glenamuck Rd near DLSP and Lansdowne/Wesley's new place at Ballychorus. It's at the end of the lane way to the right after Rockville Drive as you go up from the M50.

Guinness RFC. Iveagh Grounds. Crumlin Rd (R110). Entrance to grounds is opposite Clonard Rd. It's on the north side of Crumlin Rd. The club house roof looks blue on the map, you cant't miss it.

It's a work in progress and there are some missing (Balbriggan and Kilkenny as I wasn't sure of their exact location and probably others) and possibly some that I've misplaced (Is Longford RFC and possibly others in the correct location?)

Any comments or corrections appreciated.
Others missing are: Ardee RFC, North Meath RFC, Ratoath RFC, St.Brigids RFC, Roscrea RFC, Parkmore RFC.

Can't find where North Meath RFC or Parkmore RFC are, but have added the others.

Edit: I've posted on the NMRFC forum, so hopefully somebody will get back to me with the location.

With your permission, I'll try out the locations of clubs you've marked off and see if they'll work on satnav. If so, I'll post the csv file for others to use (the csv should be compatible with most satnavs. I'll post instructions too).
I'll try to get it sorted before the end of the week.
Great Idea Munki!! Let us know when you have it complete. I for one know it'll save me a lot of grief :happy clapper:

Portarlington Ground is slightly off as well here, should be on the R424. This link should mark it......
