Friends of Cargin

Every pitch cut, every training session delivered, and every young player who pulls on the jersey is supported by people who believe in Erin’s Own Cargin. Cairde Carraigín allows us to plan for the future with confidence, and we are deeply grateful to everyone who supports the scheme

Join today and be part of the story.

Our facilities are second to none with two full size pitches and a state-of-the-art building (with sports hall, 2nr gyms, social club, terracing), and an outdoor 3g area with a new Ball Wall, allowing us to not only compete at the top of Football, Camogie and Handball, but also provide a Community focal point, at the heart of the parish. Having these facilities provides our dedicated youth coaches the space to improve our teams in every way and ensure our young players continue to be at the top of their game.

Facilities like this come at a cost and we are asking for your help to not only maintain what we have but to get ourselves in a position to develop further and solidify our position as one of the leading clubs in Antrim.

The most recent addition to the Erin’s Own grounds was our new Ball Wall while future development plans include the upgrading of the Astroturf pitch, and an extended Training Area between the Back pitch goals and the Lough, while plans are afoot for modernising our car park area to keep up with ever increasing traffic requirements due to our growing youth membership numbers and support.

The tangible effect of contributions will:

  • Give our teams the best coaching and equipment necessary to fulfil their potential
  • Ensure we continue to be able to get the maximum out of our clubhouse and grounds
  • Join a group of people committed to keeping our club strong
  • Help fund further development of the grounds
  • Assist in the maintenance of the amenities to ensure they are kept to our high standards
  • Ensure as many people can be a full and integral part of this club and community
  • Allow us to continue to help assist the sports in our Primary Schools and local community

We are ever grateful for the immense help given to us by our supporters and continue our endeavours to maximise the opportunities we offer to our young membership.

Thank you for supporting Erin’s Own Cargin GAC
