Meet groups/clubs locallly?

misswhat

Hey all!

I'm living around Newcastle West, finding it terribly difficult to find people who actually have hobbies around?

Shouldn't be this difficult as I have normal interests (I swear)

Can't seem to find anything to do round here? Unemployment is melting my brain!

Also as I'm here, I wonder if anyone would be interested in starting a ladies soccer/camogie team in an area that does not yet have one? Or indeed if anyone knows of teams looking for a coach? I'm retired through injury from both sports, have coaching experience and played at county level. Would love to stay in the game in whatever role that might be!

Thanks in advance

Hey - Surprised you didn't get more feedback here - Maybe try the Ladies Lounge too?

hey OP ive heard of this crowd called Macra before. they have clubs all over the country. they are aimed at 17-35 year olds from the country side but they are open to all ages from everywhere. they have alot of events on locally and nationally. just follow the link below for all the info. if you want to get in touch with the Limerick chapter the details are below or else you can join up online ia the link below. hope you give it a try and it works out for you. its always hard meeting new people but hang in there youll be fine. just dont be shy. everyone is the exact same

Misswhat,Have you thought about doing some volunteering?

Raiser- yeah I was surprised too to be honest, thanks for your suggestion

Thump- Thanks a lot I really really appreciate that, I'll check out all the links, and thanks for the tips. I was a bit let down when I saw no comments on my post LOL I thought i ought to give up just then. Thanks again

Panda- Yeah, I'm volunteering for the Red Cross soon. Really wanna get back into coaching voluntarily obviously, just can't seem to get in touch with the right people. Or starting a team as I said, just can't seem to find connections

Thanks all for yer help, I really appreciate it !
