You can catch him pitch side during the Autumn Series.

Whether in sports or life generally, everyone loves an underdog.

We all love to rally behind the little guy, watch them grow from strength to strength to finally take their place and stand proudly among giants.

In business, sports and the arts, the underdog has the power to unite us, and one such underdog we can all cheer on is Aldi’s Kevin the Carrot. That’s right, the humble little veggie we all know and love will be standing alongside Ireland’s rugby greats as the proud new mascot for the Irish Rugby Football Union. The partnership is certainly a fitting one, given Aldi’s sheer love and support for Irish Rugby.

As the Autumn Series kicks off, our nation’s top rugby players are preparing to square off against their rivals, Kevin the Carrot will be working on his mascot skills. He’ll be pitch side for all the fixtures, ready to interact with fans and cheer on the team.
