About

Since its foundation in October 1966, the Club has served as a focal point for those within our community who are interested and passionate about running, whether as participants, coaches, administrators or supporters.

At its core, the Adult Club is focused on providing a healthy outlet for all to participate in athletic pursuits in an environment that is welcoming, nurturing and socially engaging. Whatever the preferred activity, whether road running, cross-country, track and field, running for fun, or playing a supporting role, the Club is proud to welcome you to be part of its great tradition, spanning over half a century.


The Adult club has over 170 members, ranging in age from twenty something to over seventy and welcomes runners of all standards.

New members always welcome.


Potential applicants are encouraged to contact the club with any queries. If you were a member of another club registered with Athletics Ireland in the last three years, you need to contact that club secretary to initiate a transfer.


Associate Membership is also available to athletes who run

with other clubs registered with Athletics Ireland and want to train with us.


For more details, please contact Danny at 0872403940
