  • Irish Universities Athletics Champions 1873-2020 Updated March 2020
    Irish Universities Athletics Champions 1873-2020 Updated March 2020 University athletics have played important roles in the foundation and evolution of track and field in Ireland. The first athletics meeting took place in College Park on Saturday 28 February, 1857, under the auspices of Trinity College Dublin Football (rugby) Club, termed ‘The Dublin University Football Club Foot Races’. This athletics meeting was only preceded by meetings organised by The Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, London in 1842 and at Exeter College, Oxford in 1850. What became known as "The College Races" continued through until 1986, except on eight occasions – 1878 and 1879 when the Board of the College refused permission because of a drunken riot by students in 1877, WWI (1915-1919) and 1921 because a female student spectator had been shot dead by an I.R.A. sniper from Nassau Street during a cricket match. The first All-Ireland Track and Field Championships were held in College Park under the auspices of Irish Champion Athletic Club on 7 July, 1873, with some 8,000 spectators watching 91 entries in the 13 events. Henry Wallace Doveton Dunlop, a Trinity graduate, was the founder of the I.C.A.C. His lasting achievement was the building of Lansdowne Road Rugby Ground, the oldest international rugby ground in the world, as a multi-sport complex for athletics, cricket, rugby, tennis, archery and bowls. College Park and Lansdowne Road would continue to be prime venues for international athletics matches and meetings and Irish championships for over a century. The Queen’s University of Ireland was established formally by Royal Charter on 3 September 1850 as the degree-awarding body for the Queen’s Colleges of Belfast, Cork and Galway, which had been established in 1845.

  • Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015
    Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015 In February 1916 Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA) circularised the principal schools in Ireland regarding the advisability of holding Schoolboys’ Championships. At the IAAA’s Annual General Meeting held on Monday 3rd April, 1916 in Wynne’s Hotel, Dublin, the Hon. Secretary, H.M. Finlay, referred to the falling off in the number of affiliated clubs due to the number of athletes serving in World War I and the need for efforts to keep the sport alive. Based on responses received from schools, the suggestion to hold Irish Schoolboys’ Championships in May was favourably considered by the AGM and the Race Committee of the IAAA was empowered to implement this project. Within a week a provisional programme for the inaugural athletics meeting to be held at Lansdowne Road on Saturday 20th May, 1916 had been published in newspapers, with 7 events and a relay for Senior and 4 events and a relay for Junior Boys. However, the championships were postponed "due to the rebellion" and were rescheduled to Saturday 23rd September, 1916, at Lansdowne Road. In order not to disappoint pupils who were eligible for the championships on the original date of the meeting, the Race Committee of the IAAA decided that “a bona fide schoolboy is one who has attended at least two classes daily at a recognised primary or secondary school for three months previous to 20 th May, except in case of sickness, and who was not attending any office or business”. The inaugural championships took place in ‘quite fine’ weather.

As the country faces into difficult economic times, it is heartening to see such endeavour complemented with characteristics like passion, spirit and hope. These qualities are not in short supply in Ireland and if we can harness them properly we will overcome our problems. The club itself was overcome with joy in 2010 with the marvellous four-in-a-row senior hurling titles – an achievement that places the club among the ranks of great clubs.

This document sets out very challenging goals that will see the Club double in size over its lifetime. This is very achievable when one considers the rapid growth that has already taken place since the Club relocated to Clonee, Dublin 15. Over the years, sporting organisations such as Erin Go Bragh, CLG and their volunteers have formed the backbone of Sport in Ireland. I believe that we must build on this legacy to enrich our lives both as active participants and as a country which values vibrant, local community identity and the achievements of our sporting heroes. Sport also has the other well recognised benefits in terms of better physical and mental health and well being.
