What is Pitch In For Cuala?
‘Pitch in for Cuala‘ is a fundraising campaign started in 2025 to purchase and develop Cuala’s first pitch.
In 2026, the fundraising campaign enabled Cuala to purchase their first ever pitch in Glenamuck, Carrickmines. Already in use for juvenile training and matches, the campaign now aims to create a longer term funding stream to further develop the site into a first class gaelic games facility for generations of Cuala members to come.
About the Pitch
The Glenamuck Pitch site is located off the new Glenamuck Distributor Road in Carrickmines, and is approximately 15-20 mins drive from Cuala, Hyde Park, Dalkey. The grounds comprise:
- Main grass pitch area with floodlights (138m x 80m)
- Smaller grass training area with floodlights (80m x 35m)
- Dressing rooms/clubhouse building
- A new vehicular entrance from the Glenamuck District Distributor Rd
The pitch is already in use for juvenile and underage training and matches, but there is potential for phased upgrading. This could include works to realign, enlarge and resurface the main pitch to a high-quality full-sized pitch facility, while converting the training area into an allweather facility with wall ball. Upgrading of the clubhouse building and additional carparking could also form part of any future development works.
Our Fundraising Strategy – Help us Develop the Pitch
The fundraising strategy is centred on 3 pillars: member and friend donations, fundraising events and the club lotto.
We have established a range of donation packages to suit different budgets and hope that as many members as possible can give what they can to invest in the future of our club and make this pitch our own .
As Cuala is an approved sports body, if you donate over €250 in a tax year you can make your donation go even further by donating your tax relief to Cuala.
Find out more about donation packages and tax relief on donations below.
A fundraising committee is working on developing key fundraising events in the coming months to help towards achieving our fundraising goal (while giving members an opportunity to have some fun too!). Our aim is that these events become part of our annual calendar, creating a sustainable source of funds for the development of the pitch and club.
All funds raised from our recently relaunched Cuala lotto will be added to the ‘Pitch in for Cuala’ fundraising campaign. With a new guaranteed weekly jackpot of €20,000, there has never been a better time to play. Be in with a chance to win while supporting fundraising for this project.
The club lotto is powered by Clubforce. You can play in-app or online. Find out more via the links below.
