Club story
Football in Clonmel
Clonmel Celtic gives local players a route through youth football, with Celtic Park, Clonmel at the heart of club football.
Youth football
Academy, schoolboys and girls
The club introduction describes an academy for ages six to eight, schoolboy teams and football through to adult level. It also records a ladies’ team and coaching for girls at under 12, under 14 and under 16. Current club results confirm under 9, under 10, under 12 and under 14 activity. Ask the club for this season’s team list and places in the relevant age group.

Club organisation
FAI Club Mark recognition

A child safeguarding statement is available on the club website. New families can ask the secretary for the current welfare contact and team communication arrangements.
Club story
A merger, early youth success and county titles
Representatives of Evergreen and St Olivers Boys met in Elm Park in July 2003, with support from the RAPID programme. Their combined club entered the Tipperary Southern & District League that August. The official history traces the earlier clubs through Evergreen, St Olivers, St Martins and Elm Park Rangers.
Celtic’s youths won the 2004 Munster Youths Cup, beating Waterford Bohemians 2–0. The club’s honours list records Tipperary Cup wins in 2008/09 and 2009/10, TSDL Premier League titles in 2012/13 and 2014/15, and the 2013 Munster Champions League Trophy. FAI Junior Cup semi finals in 2012 and 2015 added national cup runs to that period.
Player progression continues to feature in the club’s news. In August 2026, Celtic wished goalkeeper Fabian Kerton well after his move to Waterford’s Villa FC for the FAI National League. Celtic’s under 14 team sponsored him for the season, maintaining a connection with their former goalkeeper.
