Clontarf FC Awards Day June 2025

The forecast was for sun on Saturday May 10th and it didn't let us down as the committee arrived at the St John the Baptist Parish hall on Seafield Road to set up for our annual end of season awards event where we celebrated the great success that our Club is and the fact that it continues to grow year on year with this year being the first full year of our Football for All, the number of girls playing football for the club passed the 200 player milestone and continues to go from strength to strength, while in total the club fielded well over 40 teams again this season.

A special mention must go to Shea McNelis who once again organised and setup this amazing event, while John Rush, Mark Evenden and our Chair John O Neill do trojan work to make the event the success that it is each year.

The day kicked off with our fantastic Football for all team who enjoyed the games and treats on offer before coming in to the hall to collect their end of season awards. This is the first full year of the Football for all program which runs every Saturday in the DCC astro Clontarf Road from 2 - 3pm. The team are always ready to welcome new members and it would be great to see some new faces in September as the new season kicks off.

Our small sided Boys and Girls teams had a ball in the sunshine with the ice cream van and Crepe vendor going down a treat. And as all the Mams and Dads enjoyed a catch up and a coffee the kids tried out all the activities before each age group from U8 to U11 entered the hall to collect their medals and have their team pictures taken

And the final groups of the day were our U12 to U18 Boys and Girls teams including our oldest girls team, our U14s
