Club Sports Carrigaline Macra
Na Feirme offers a busy calendar of sports events
to keep members active throughout the year. While many clubs organise their
own weekly sports activities, participation in the national sports
competitions is also open to all members. This year the club organised a weekly sports
night in Riverstick Hall on Wednesday nights during
the winter months. It has proven very successful among the members and we
can’t wait to recommence the new season! We play a variety of sports in
rotation such as indoor soccer, basketball, dodge ball and uni-hoc. New members are always welcome to join in. The Club and region provides an excellent
sports programme throughout the Macra year. Here are some of the great sports competitions
available to Macra members. Click here to view Rules for sports
competitions. Mens Indoor soccer: 5-A-Side soccer
played throughout the year on a league basis until the semi-finals are sorted
