Membership stats for athletic clubs in Cork...end of June 2015

Athletics Ireland have released some stats recently showing the membership of clubs throughout the country. In terms of adult membership, these are the ones in Cork with more than 50 members at the end of June 2015...

The big change since last month is that Ballymore Cobh AC are now the largest club in Cork in terms of adult membership. Only a few years ago, they were essentially a club for juveniles with a small number of adults to coach them. Fast forward to today and they are the largest.

It's probably worth mentioning as well that this doesn't represent the full story as one of the biggest growth areas in recent times has been that of running groups who are not members of athletics Ireland. There are now a number of these throughout the county and some are quiet large. e.g. Wibbly Wobbly Wonders in Ballyvolane, Happy Feet in Blarney, etc.
