Athletics 

At Moyle Park College, we take pride in fostering a culture of athleticism and teamwork and excellence through athletics. Nestled in the heart of the West Leinster region, our athletes embody the spirit of sportsmanship as they compete in Cross Country and Track and Field events. 

The aim of the club is to form a strong running community to nurture both beginners and seasoned athletes alike. As a club we cater for students who are interested in sprinting, jumping or distance running. We train every week after school in preparation for the various events. 

The athletics calendar starts off with the West Leinster Cross Country Championships which takes place in the Phoenix Park. If students are successful as an individual or as a team they will progress to the Leinster Championships and then on to the All Ireland Schools Championships. Once spring arrives the start of the Track and Field season begins with the Medley relay events. The students compete in the West Leinster Track and Field Championships with the ambition of qualifying to the Leinster and All Ireland School Championships. As a long club we have been been very successful with multiple Leinster and national champions. 

As a club we are always looking and open for new members to join a sport that can offer the thrill of competition, the joy of personal achievement and the lifelong lessons learned through the pursuit of athletic success in Moyle Park College.
