In May 2016, Reidy, who is Irish-qualified through his grandfather who is from Castlegregory, was selected as part of the 32-man squad for the tour of South Africa.

The New Zealand born back row star signed a 3-year contract extension with Ulster, keeping him with the region until 2020, after joining the club from Counties Manukau in 2014.
