Posted: 2016-08-17 01:31:48

A club of tradition that has stood the test of time, Tramore Athletic is looking to recruit new club members to join its ranks ahead of the new season. Located at the heart of Douglas, Tramore will celebrate 70 years of nurturing some of the city’s finest soccer talent in 2018. As well as the obvious, playing socer, Tramore encourages all its new members to enjoy their sport with a club ethos of ensuring children can learn in a fun environment under a wealth of qualified coaches who work within the club.

Tramore is currently looking to recruit members for its youth academy (five-nine years) as well as for its under 11, 13, 14, 17 and 18 teams.

A long list of great players have worn the maroon and gold jersey of Tramore Athletic since its beginnings in 1948 including Frankie McCarthy, Noel O’Mahony, Pat O’Mahony (later West Ham United) Kieran O’Regan (Irish international), Charlie McCarthy, Fergus O’Donghue and Graham Cummins (Cork City FC), who are just some of the greats who represented the club. The success at school boys’ level was followed up at senior, junior, youths and AUL level; and as well as winning the FAI Intermediate cup on three occasions, Tramore Athletic can boast a host of honours that is the envy of many other clubs in Cork.

With its primary location off the South Douglas Road, close to the Gaelscoil, highly convenient in terms of accessibility, anyone who has children or would be interested in joining themselves can contact Tramore Athletic through Paul on 086-3580214 or Derry on 086-2447832 or visit the website tramoreafc.league.ie.
