About club
Description: Moycarkey Coolcroo Athletic Club was established in 1936 and is as strong now as it was back in its infancy. We currently have over 130 members registered with the Club for May 2021. The Club’s athletes compete all year round in a wide variety of events from Cross Country, Indoor & Outdoor Track & Field events, Combined Events and Road Races at juvenile, junior & senior level. Training takes place at our grounds in Littleton where Phase 1 and 2 of our track development have been completed. The Club has no shortage of willing members to help out at a moment’s notice & our women have a wonderful ability to put on a great feast after County road races, as wellas County and Munster Cross Countries, which the Club has hosted. Their biscuit cake is legendary & many athletes come just for a taste of this cake after the race. There is a great camaraderie amongst Club members which is witnessed no matter where we go. We hold our Annual Road Races in June each year and of course we have our very own History Book “A Tipperary Athletic Club” The Club has always made a positive contribution to athletics in this parish, both through active participation and organisation of events. And none more evident that the past few years when our very distinctive singlet has been seen the length & breadth of the British Isles. Some of our athletes have also donned the Irish singlet to compete for Ireland on the International stage. The Club takes a very active role in Tipperary County Athletics with three of our members filling the roles of County Chairman (Billy Purcell), County IT Manager & Registrar (Aisling Hoey), & County Juvenile Indoor & Outdoor Track & Field Secretary (Jim Ryan). 2 of our members are also on the Munster Council, Aisling Hoey as Munster Juvenile Competition Secretary & Jim Ryan as Vice Chair and Chair of Juvenile as well as Billy Purcell who lends his expertise in Cross Country and Health and Safety to the Munster Competition Committee. Over the past year, the Club has also hosted prestigious County and Munster Road and Cross Country competitions. Our Club and our dedicated team continue on our way for 2021 to promote & encourage athletics and a fit & healthy lifestyle for all in our parish and its surroundings.
