A few words about Thomastown Athletic Club

Thomastown Athletic Club in Kilkenny is one of the longest-established clubs in Ireland with records of club sports in the town going back to the 1890s. The club is located in south Kilkenny supporting juveniles & senior athletes in the local catchment area of Thomastown, Bennettsbridge, Ballyhale, Stoneyford, Newmarket, Hugginstown and Callan. While we are a small club of approx. 120 members our juvenile athletes have been very successful over the last 10 years in both Cross Country and Track & Field with many of our athletes medalling at Leinster and National level with a number going on to represent their country.

Through the support of Thomastown GAA club & Grennan College we use their facilities for our training and would like to improve facilities for all in the locality.

Any assistance you can provide would be gratefully appreciated.
