Club Membership: Although the season is yet to commence and we are in uncertain times, it is essential to ensure that Club membership is paid, more so now than any other year as revenue and fund raising has been very limited. With that in mind we ask all our players, members and families to log in and pay their membership online in a safe and secure environment in the comfort of your home or on the go. This year we have moved to Clubforce to facilitate the payment of membership, this is a simple process and safe in the current climate. We ask that all members download the Clubforce app from the App Store or Google Play store, or you can click on the link here: https://member.clubforce.com/memberships_cart_m.asp?LL_ID=2409&clb=1 if viewing online.

Club membership is vital to the survival of the Club and please remember all players are required to have their membership completed to be covered for the Player Injury Fund. If you have any queries in relation to the Clubforce App please contact Damien O'Reilly on 0871252126
