A Judge has ordered the organisers of the Kinsale Sevens to erect anti-drug signs at the rugby tournament and in the town
Judge James McNulty made the the order in an effort to remind remind people of the consequences of being caught with drugs, following a spate of prosecutions for cocaine possession at previous tournaments.
The Irish Examiner reports that prototypes of the signage are to be shown to the Gardaí and the solicitor for Kinsale Rugby Club in Bandon District Court on Thursday.
The Sevens event is due to be held on April 29 and April 30 and it regularly attracts thousands of visitors to the town.
