The Tipperary club are newly promoted to the top tier and representing the Premier at the highest level of club rugby, will begin their season at home against fellow newcomers Old Belvedere, who secured promotion as Division 1B champions.

Among the opening weekend highlights is a rematch of last season’s semi-finals. Defending champions Clontarf travel to face St. Mary’s College, while runners-up Cork Constitution are away to Lansdowne.

Nenagh Ormond’s first away fixture will see them visit UCD in round two, followed by a home clash against Cork Constitution in round three – a side they overcame in last season’s Munster Senior Challenge Cup.

Key dates for Nenagh include a trip to Lansdowne on November 1st and a home meeting with title holders Clontarf on December 6th.

Their eagerly anticipated derby fixtures against Young Munster are scheduled for December 13th in Limerick and the return leg on January 10th, 2026, at New Ormond Park.
