An important message from the executive Committee

The club have recently launched a Buy a Brick campaign, to help towards the cost of the upcoming Clubhouse renovation.
We did receive a grant of 120k towards the cost of this work, but there is still a shortfall of 100k, hence the beginning of our fundraising campaign.

*Why are we doing the work?*

Our club has grown to a point that we now have nearly 50 underage teams and 7 senior teams. This includes 9 girls' teams, and a Women’s senior team. We also hope to be involved with the “Football for all” programme by years end.


Our current facilities are not fit for purpose for a club of our size and diversity. 


The renovation will see each of our 4 dressing rooms remodelled and fitted with their own individual showers and toilets, giving teams more privacy.


We are upgrading the Gym so it will be able to facilitate teams with squads of 20 players, allowing our teams to do strength and conditioning training during the winter months.


A video analysis room is also being installed, allowing our managers to analyse games played and have meetings with their players.


Finally, we will be putting in a lift, helping our elderly / impaired club members in accessing both levels of our clubhouse.


These upgrades will greatly help in the development of our players, giving them the best chance to fulfil their potential.


*How can you help?*


To put it simply, you can help by buying a brick, or forwarding this message on to any current /ex. club or community member that may be interested in buying a brick.
Or by approaching any businesses that may be interested in one of our corporate bricks.


We have 3 personal brick options (full details on these bricks can be found on our website)


 *€50 for a individual brick* 
 *€50 for a memorial brick* 
 *€150 for a family brick* 


All of these bricks will be a permanent feature along the walls of our changing room corridor, meaning all of our players will see who has helped support them every time they use our new dressing rooms, gym and analysis room.


We will also be offering 2 corporate brick options


 *€500 for an individual corporate brick* 
 *€2,000 for a bundle of 5 corporate bricks* 


These bricks will be located at the top of our main stairwell, leading into the club bar and function room. This wall will have a glass covering over it and will be a permanent feature in the building. This will give the company great exposure to all members and visitors. Their logo will be displayed on the advertising TV in the bar and will also be displayed permanently on our website.


If anyone has a business or thinks the company, they work for would be able to sponsor a brick, we have a small booklet available from our office and bar, which you may find helpful when approaching them.


You can purchase a brick now by following the link below, going to the bottom of that page and choosing what brick you wish to buy.


We will be giving a prize to the group that raises the most money, so if you wish to associate your brick purchase to a certain team, please choose their age group when making your purchase.


Thank you again for your continued support and if you wish to discuss any aspect of this fundraiser, please have no hesitation in contacting the club directly (officeadmin@rahenyunited.ie)
