Gearing Up for Training

The "Gearing Up for Training" programme aims to encourage young club members and parents to cycle to their club for training / matches. The main objectives are:

  • Encouraging cycling from a young age in Fingal and develop a life-long love of cycling
  • Reduce carbon emissions around the club promoting a healthy environment
  • Reduce traffic congestion at the club during training / match days
  • Promote an active and healthy lifestyle

Fingal Co Council will provide professional cycle right approved trainers dedicated to delivering a cycle training programme to the selected clubs, and additional bike parking facilities for use on the club grounds. The training will culminate in a cycling style event for the club.
