Our Community, Our Future:
The Pathway to 2030
A Vision for the Future
Clarinbridge Camogie and GAA Clubs have long been at the heart of our community, fostering a rich tradition of sport, connection, and belonging. Now, we are looking ahead, together.
Pathway to 2030 is a shared vision rooted in our commitment to providing equitable access to high-quality, inclusive facilities that serve all age groups. It reflects our goal to empower every player, coach, volunteer, and supporter to reach their full potential.
By growing the games, nurturing club culture, and strengthening community spirit, we will build a sustainable future for generations to come. With your continued support, we’re ready to shape that future.
Key Benefits of Pathway to 2030
Pathway to 2030 is more than a facilities development project—it’s a long-term investment in the future of Clarinbridge. By enhancing our facilities and spaces, together, we’re creating new opportunities for participation, connection, and growth for all. Each phase of this facility’s development journey brings lasting benefits:
Better Access to Quality Facilities
Year-round spaces to support skill development, training, and team growth.
Support for Every Age & Stage
Facilities designed for every phase of life—from our youngest players to adult athletes.
Community at the Core
Welcoming spaces for learning, connection, and coming together as one club.
Future-Proof & Sustainable
Environmentally conscious upgrades built to serve future generations.
Building on Tradition, Growing Together
Since each club’s founding, Clarinbridge Camogie and GAA Clubs have stood as pillars of community, culture and connection. From humble beginnings in borrowed fields to county and All-Ireland triumphs, our story is one of unity, progress, and pride. Today, we honour that legacy as we look forward. Together, we are laying the foundation for a future where both clubs thrive through equitable access to modern, inclusive facilities.
Clarinbridge GAA Club
Clarinbridge GAA Club enriches lives through hurling, fostering lifelong participation and a deep sense of belonging. We support every member—players, mentors, and volunteers—through clear development pathways, inclusive values, and strong governance. With four adult teams and growing underage participation, we are building something lasting.
Clarinbridge Camogie Club
Clarinbridge Camogie Club is committed to empowering every member and placing our club at the heart of the community. Guided by our vision, to empower all to reach their full potential, we focus on growing the game, retaining players and building strong community connections. Through initiatives like social camogie, school outreach and adult player engagement, we are expanding participation at every age and stage.
Laying the Foundations for a Sustainable Future
From 2017 to 2024, we laid the foundation for our club’s long-term development, supported by the Oskars initiative and a LEADER grant. Key milestones include a new car park, Fleming’s Field transformation and gym equipment installation. Our needs-led approach ensures facilities evolve to serve both clubs and the community.
We’ve completed a site assessment, guided by past plans and feedback, and invested in gym equipment, wheelchair access, an electronic scoreboard and a walkway. We’ve also secured full ownership of the grounds, planning permissions for the Ball Wall and developed a site master plan.
Looking ahead, the next phase focuses on expanding capacity and future-proofing facilities. Pathway to 2030 is a phased plan built on strong foundations, guided by transparency, consultation and evolving community needs. The full cost is estimated at €1.2 million with €65k raised through Oskars and currently €293k in grant aid.
