A Club of Olympians

We may be a small rural club—but we’ve produced athletes who have competed on the world’s biggest stage. We’re proud to be home to not one, but two Olympians who wore the green vest of Ireland with pride.

From the legendary Paddy Fahey, who lined up in the 10,000m at the 1948 London Olympics, to the powerful sprinting of Tomás Coman, who competed in the 400m at the Sydney 2000 Games, our club has a rich legacy of elite performance and dedication.

Their journeys continue to inspire the next generation of Moycarkey Coolcroo athletes—reminding us all that greatness can start on our own club track.
