The director of rugby with Young Munster Rugby Football Club in Limerick has settled his High Court action against the club arising from the proposed termination of his employment from June 30th.

On June 27th Mr Rowly Williams, with an address in England but living at Fitzhaven Square, Limerick, was granted leave by Mr Justice Smyth to bring proceedings against the club's executive committee.

The court also granted a temporary injunction restraining the club from terminating Mr Williams's appointment.

Mr Williams (42) took up his position with Young Munster in August 2002 and said that he was given to believe at an interview in February/March 2002 that he was being interviewed for an appointment of a minimum three years.
