West Clare soccer beside the estuary
Moneypoint AFC gives young players a football home at Gallery Park, with boys, girls and teen teams in Clare school age soccer.
Kilrush and West Clare
Moneypoint AFC is a Kilrush football club based on Cooraclare Road at Ballyurra, close to the Shannon Estuary and the west Clare villages that feed into the club. Its colours are blue and yellow, and its match day identity is tied closely to the Moneypoint name.
Today the football life is centred on school age and youth teams, with family support around a small ground that is easy for visiting teams to locate from Kilrush.
Gallery Park on Cooraclare Road
Gallery Park is the club’s home football base for matches and training. The club gives its address as Cooraclare Road, Ballyurra, Kilrush, Co. Clare, and its map pin gives 52.643592, -9.483724 for the ground.
Recent club posts place National Cup fixtures at Gallery Park, and the club has thanked Kilrush Credit Union for support toward new permanent fixture dugouts. For match day travel, families should use the club pin rather than a town centre search.
Boys, girls and teen teams
Moneypoint’s 2026 Clare Schoolboys/girls Soccer League teams include U17, U14, U13 girls and U13 boys. Recent weekly notices add small sided groups, goalkeeper sessions, boys teams, girls football and summer camp activity feeding into that older pathway.
For parents, that means Moneypoint is not just a fixture name on a league list. It is a local route from early football into teenage soccer, with girls and boys both visible in the current club activity.
Clare league setting
Moneypoint AFC plays inside the Clare Schoolboys/girls Soccer League, with SFAI National Cup ties appearing in the club’s own fixture notes. County players have also come through the club into Clare Kennedy Cup squads, keeping the Kilrush side connected to the wider county pathway.
The football calendar changes quickly, so live fixtures and results are best checked through the club and league channels. The steady part is the setting: Gallery Park in Kilrush, Clare schoolboys and schoolgirls football, and a club that carries west Clare players into county and national underage competitions.
A season with silverware
The 2026 season gave Moneypoint a set of named underage honours. The U14 side were presented with the Pat Daly trophy after a 4-1 win over Avenue United, and the club later celebrated that group completing a league and cup double. The U15A team also brought the Division 1 Shield back to west Clare after a 4-0 final win over Shannon Town.
Joining, contact and care
The club’s official site carries membership, contact, fixtures and results. The contact details name a secretary, registrar, child protection officer and designated liaison person, giving parents a clear route for registration, football questions and safeguarding contact.
New families should use the club contact email before travelling for a first session, as age group times and squad arrangements can change during the season.
