Bryn Cunningham
DOB 30th Mar 1978 Height 1.83 m Weight 90 kg Position Full Back
Arguably one of the best players under a high ball in Irish Rugby, Cunningham is both an extremely strong defensive full-back and very threatening in attack. Educated at Bangor Grammar School and Trinity College Dublin, an all-round sportsman, he has also played tennis, squash and cricket to a high level, representing Ireland at under age levels.
Displaying talent form an early age, Bryn was a very young member of Ulster's victorious European Cup winning squad of 1999 along with his older brother Jan and won his 100th Ulster cap against Llanelli at Stradey Park in May 2006.
In the summer of 2006 he represented Ireland in the Churchill Cup in the USA and Canada, bringing his tally of A caps to 6.
