BKT-URC Ulster Rugby Match Day Programme v Dragons

Meet Young
Fundraising Hero,
Lewis Rennie
In the wake of tragedy, rugby became a
source of solace for Graham and Lewis
Rennie after losing their son and brother,
Callum, to cancer. Graham found purpose
coaching the Minis at Larne Rugby Club,
while Lewis played for the team. Rugby
provided them with moments of respite
from grief, offering a shared passion and
valuable time together.
Inspired by Callum’s memory, Lewis
fundraised for The Big C Foundation NI,
supporting children with cancer. Their
efforts gained momentum, raising over
£16,000 and achieving charity status.
Grateful for community support, the
Rennies continue their mission, providing
essential resources and support to children
undergoing treatment.
In recognition of their dedication, Bank of
Ireland arranged a special day at Kingspan
Stadium, where Lewis met his local hero,
Ulster player Ben Moxham. Despite their loss,
Graham and Lewis find joy in family time and
outdoor adventures, with rugby serving as a
constant source of strength. Lewis is currently
undertaking a new fundraising challenge, the
7 Peak Challenge, aiming to climb Ben Nevis
in the summer.
In the spirit of the Origins Round, the URC
along with BKT have kindly let Lewis present
the Player of the Match medal this evening.
