Ireland men’s sevens captain Harry McNulty has announced his retirement from rugby.
The 31-year-old led Ireland at this year’s Paris Olympics and made over 140 appearances after making his debut in 2015.
McNulty also represented Ireland at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 and was part of the Irish team that won a bronze medal at the 2022 Rugby World Cup Sevens in Cape Town.
“Little did I know in 2015 when my mom signed me up to an open day for the 7s program, it would all turn out like this,” said McNulty.
“From Bosnia to Paris, it’s been a pretty wild ride and one that I will cherish forever.”
He added: “I’ve travelled the world and have made friends in every corner of the planet.
“Core status qualification, 2x World Cups, 2x Olympics, captaincy and memories last lifetime. What a ride!
“For now the boots may hang but the door remains open and I’m excited for what the future holds. It’s the right time to put my energy into the next stage of my life.”
