Notice...Bandon Open Sports - Sun 24th Aug 2014

Bandon Athletic Club were formed back in 1964 and in 2014, they celebrate their 50th anniversary. To commemorate this, the club is holding an Open Sports Day in Bandon Town Park.

From Bandon AC......The Open Sports Day is being hosted to celebrate our 50th birthday and to coincide with the first open sports held in Bandon back in 1964. 

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS HAS BEEN CANCELLED UNTIL A FUTURE DATE DUE TO THE WEATHER.


We are hoping for a competitive and fun day for both juvenile and senior athletes. Admission is €5 for adults, €3 for juvenilles/juniors and €10 for a family which covers entry to any of the events. Junior and Senior pre-entry is available which will help the organisers but athletes can simply enter on the day if necessary. The full order of events and pre-entry can be found on www.bandonac.org

The day starts with juvenile events at 12 pm with the first senior events starting at 2pm. Linking back to a tradition when cycling was a core part of many athletic events, there are 3 cycle events included on the programme which should make for an interesting change.

The Open Sports will be held in Bandon Town Park....see map below. This is located on the Macroom Road.

From the Cork road...Drive in as far as the T-junction and turn right and cross over the river. Then left and a right up the hill at the next junction. Just keep driving and the Town Park will be on your left.
