Club Membership 2019 

On reviewing the club membership fees the club executive have agreed the present club membership fees are not in line with other GAA clubs in the county and throughout the region. Our club presently caters for boys & girls from U-6’s up to adult teams and provide facilities not matched by most clubs. We as a club provide excellent coaches at all levels with a part time coach employed within the primary schools. Presently the cost to finance the club per annum is in the region of €130,000 with approximately €30,000 raised by our club lotto with the balance raised through other different sources. In reviewing the club membership going forward the following rates has been agreed.

This is applicable to all playing members over the U-20 age level. Adult Players – All players over 20 years old - €120 or single membership of An Chairde Realta Dunari as above.   Students (with valid Student Card) - €75. Juvenile players = U-6’s - U-11’s = €50 per player.   U-13’s - U-20’s = €75 per player {Includes students}.
