Harolds Cross YFC football

Harolds Cross YFC gives local players a route through boys and girls, with Rosary Park, 350 Harold’s Cross Road, Dublin 6W at the heart of club football.

Club identity

A long-standing Harold’s Cross youth club

Harolds Cross YFC has served local children and families for more than six decades. The club’s own history places its beginnings in the mid-1950s, first beside Mount Jerome Cemetery and later at the present community base.

That football and youth-club story remains visible in the current DDSL record and in the green-and-yellow crest used across the page.

Youth pathway

From academy age to under-17 football

The club describes a pathway from academy-age children, including under-7s, through teams up to under-17. Its youth-club tradition gives younger players a place to meet, train and play as they progress into organised league football.

Current age groups, team names, divisions and seasonal relationships are shown by the native Teams module, keeping each squad connected to its own DDSL competition.

Colours and crest

Green and yellow identity

The DDSL club profile lists green and yellow as the registered colours. The enhanced crest keeps the original cross, football, 1957 date and ribbon wording while adding depth and clarity for the profile opener and club identity panels.

Fixtures, results and standings continue to use the canonical club record, so the same identity follows each connected team.

Club history

Harold’s Cross YFC began in the mid 1950s near Mount Jerome Cemetery. It later moved to a property provided by Fr Brown, combining football with a youth club offering indoor games, social activities and trips. When a sale of the property was considered in the 1980s, local members campaigned to retain the club. A compromise allowed part of the land to be developed while funding a new clubhouse and retaining a repositioned football pitch. The club website identifies its home as Rosary Park, 350 Harold’s Cross Road, Dublin 6W.
