Killarney Athletic are recruiting for new volunteers
By Sean Moriarty
The continued growth of Killarney Athletic AFC means the club is now recruiting more volunteers.
This time last year the club was awarded the FAI ‘Star Mark’. This means the sport’s governing body recognises the governance that is in place within the club’s structure.
Killarney Athletic is one of only two clubs in Kerry and 26 nationally to have been awarded ‘Star Mark’ status.
As a result more and more people want to join the club. This is particularly noticeable in the Juvenile Girls section. A year ago, around 40 girls were members of the club and that has now grown to over 100.
“We always need more volunteers,” said Club Chair Ger Nagle.
“Volunteers can come in many ways. 17 years ago I joined the club because my son was playing, now I am Club Chair.”
The club has also set up a nationally recognised player development programme across all ages.
“We are evolving more and more,” she added. “We need more volunteers to keep this expansion going.”
