AFAIK, you can't register with a club after 1st April, though I could be wrong - I'm not involved with a mens club, but I remember looking at something recently about the online registration system.

edit - though tbh, I can't see why members cannot register after that, especially if just beginning

Frank Spencer · 11-05-2011 8:54am

You can register/join with a club at any point in the year as long as you are a "free agent" and don't require a transfer from another club. You only need to be registered before a certain date to have voting rights in AGMs etc.

In answer to the OP's query, yes ring the manager and he will be able to give you all the information regarding training times etc.

Best of luck.

I've just had to relocate from Limerick up to Dublin and am looking for a decent soccer team to play for. I've played all my life and at a decent standard. Premier Div in Limerick for Wembley Rovers and Fairview Rangers. Any form of soocer will do, 11 a side, 5 a side Astro, Indoor, ANY. Please PM me if you are looking to get in a few players for the pre season, hopefully you won't be dissappointed. Cheers...

Clareman · 28-06-2011 2:24pm

You might want to try the soccer forum rather that the GAA forum if you're trying for a soccer game. I would suggest you read this thread and find a local GAA club to give it a try

You should look at Breda who play in the Down league and play on the Ravenhill Road. Nice welcoming bunch, have a couple of junior teams as well as one playing at a good intermediate standard I think.

Also in South Belfast and playing in Antrim are St. Bridgid's who are on the Lisburn or Malone Rd I'm not sure. Again, big enough club, should have a team for all standards.

dedamcd · 04-08-2011 5:10pm

Hi Im looking to train with a ladies football team in Galway city during the week but cant seem to get a hold of anyone. (Intermediate/senior) Would be great if anyone had any contacts. Thanks

The man in red and black · 06-08-2011 1:59pm

Réalt Dearg in Terenure are always welcoming new players. We're going on a hurling tour of Scotland in October once championship is over and have international hurling vs shinty matches arranged for then. As you can guess we are an extremely proactive club for one that is so new.

We have managed to get both our teams into championship county quarter finals which will be played at the end of August with the A team still in the hunt for the league title as well. We are open to players of any age or ability. Even if you just want to train and not play matches the more we have at training the better.

The A team has plenty of good hurlers who would have played at least inter or junior in other good hurling counties and we also have beginners taking up the sport. You'd be amazed at how fast lads pick it up, some of the better players on the B team are lads who literally only picked up a hurl for the first time last year and just went hell for leather at it, trained 3+ nights a week and on their own and have developed the skills at an amazing rate!

We have great craic in the club too with everyone getting along and none of the cliques you might expect in a long established club. If you are interested in getting involved or want to see our matches, visit www.realtdearg.ie and contact one of the committee members about training times etc.

Looking to join a football team for training etc. in the north dublin area... played when I was younger and now 20 looking to revive the passion.

Any info from those out there with a bit more knowlede would be great!

Cheers

Hey moving up to DCU to do a masters in Sept and was hoping to join a Junior hurling club nearby.

I'm 23 and have played one game in my life when a local team was stuck for a player recently and really enjoyed it so was hoping to try give it a go, obviously at very low grade.

Would be delighted with the fitness, craic and perfecting the skills if nothing else.

Have played football when i was younger, and would consider joining a football team too for the same reasons.

I know the seasons nearly over now but even a few ideas for next season would be warmly welcomed in the general area around DCU.

Thanks!!

Junior Hurling - Na Fianna down on Mobhi Road is a short walk from DCU. Excellent club, very good facilities. Have a few football teams from junior up to senior also.

Hi

Over the last few months we've seen quite a number of threads popping up where people are either looking for a new club to join, or a poster representing a club wants to advertise for new players and the like. With that in mind we've set up this new thread so posters can either spread the word about who they play for, or find out more about other GAA clubs without cluttering the rest of the forum.

If this is successful we would hope that in time this will be a great reference guide for people to find out as much information as possible about the clubs in their area. As well as that, if anyone is looking for a club to join in a particular county just give a shout out here and something should crop up. Any threads in the future advertising a certain club will be merged into this one, and I've also posted up a little template if people wish to use that as a starting point to telling us a bit about the club and what you do!

Same rules apply as per the rest of the forum, no spamming, no posting of personal details, particularly if you wish to exchange mobile numbers please do so via PM.

Club Name:Wild Geese
Location:Oldtown,swords, Co Dublin

Lads (and girls?), I've been reading this and other posts on joining up a GAA club....i'm 24, and am looking to give hurling a bit of a go. I've never played before, but would really be up for giving it a shot.

I'm living in the city centre (D1 area), but am flexible enough in terms of travelling to somewhere in the Dublin area. I'm looking for a bit of advice on a good club to join, somewhere that would be put up with a total novice..any suggestions would be appreciated! I'm pretty eager, so would like to think my enthusiasm might make up for my obvious lack of skill! Cheers

Réalt Dearg would be ideal so. We had plenty of beginners in last couple of years-Germans, Polish, Canadians and even Cavan lads played with us and improved it up in no time. Season is pretty much coming to an end now though so I'd wait til we start back in January/Feb.
