Burrin Road football with green and white roots
New Oak Boys AFC brings the 1985 New Oak identity into boys, girls, senior and over 35 football.
New Oak identity
New Oak Boys AFC is a Carlow football club tied to the New Oak Football Club name and the 1985 date carried on its badge.
The green and white badge carries three oak trees, footballs on each side and a central field motif, giving the club a clear visual link to New Oak and to community football in Carlow.
Burrin Road base
Burrin Road is the football base most closely tied to New Oak Boys AFC in fixture listings and local match details. It gives the club a recognised Carlow home for visiting teams and families.
Visitors should still confirm pitch allocation, kick off time and team contact before travelling, especially when a fixture sits within a cup round or a shared league schedule.
Burrin Road, Carlow. Confirm the exact pitch before travelling.
Carlow football route
The club sits within the Carlow football pathway, with youth activity linked to the Carlow and District Juvenile League and local football activity around the town.
That setting gives players a route from early age group football into older youth teams, girls football, senior football and veteran football.
Boys age groups
New Oak Boys AFC appears across boys competitions at under 12, under 13, under 14 and under 16 levels. Those age groups point to a club that can support development across several seasons rather than one isolated team.
The underage pathway matters for families because players can grow through organised league football while staying inside the same club environment.
Girls football in green and pink
Girls football is a visible part of the New Oak pathway. New Oak Girls Green and New Oak Girls Pink have both appeared in Carlow juvenile league activity.
Having named girls squads gives the club a clearer route for new players, especially where two squads at a similar age need their own identity and fixture path.
Under 14 SFAI Trophy run
New Oak Boys AFC reached the last 16 of the SFAI under 14 Trophy in 2023 after a three all draw with Ardee Celtic at Burrin Road and a six to five win on penalties.
That cup tie shows the club hosting national competition football in Carlow while giving its underage players a stage beyond regular league fixtures.
Under 16 girls national stage
New Oak Boys AFC also appears in the SFAI under 16 Girls National Trophy route, including a quarter final listing away to Greystones United in March 2026.
That stage gives the girls pathway extra weight because players can see New Oak teams reaching national cup football as well as local league games.
Local league weekends
New Oak teams have hosted and travelled in Carlow juvenile league weekends, with boys and girls fixtures showing the club across different divisions and age groups.
This mix gives parents a practical picture of the club: regular league football, cup days, home fixtures at Burrin Road and away days across Carlow and nearby counties.
Senior football presence
New Oak football also reaches the adult game. New Oak appears in Carlow and District football structures at junior men level, alongside other Carlow clubs and town teams.
For older players, that senior presence helps connect youth football with a longer playing route inside the local game.
Over 35 football
New Oak over 35 football has been active in the Martin Mullins Memorial Cup route, with a 2025 cup final staged at New Oak Boys, Burrin Road.
Veteran football adds another layer to the club community because past players, coaches and local football people can remain connected after their senior playing years.
Local derby culture
Fixtures against clubs such as Burrin Celtic, Bagenalstown, Hanover Harps, St Patrick’s Boys, Nurney Villa, Parkville United and Ballymurphy Celtic place New Oak within a busy Carlow football map.
That local derby culture keeps the club connected to nearby towns and villages while helping players build regular competitive experience.
What families should check
A first visit should confirm the correct coach contact, age group, pitch, start time, footwear guidance and whether the fixture is league, cup or friendly football.
For cup ties and girls fixtures, checking the exact competition name and team colour is especially useful when more than one New Oak squad is active.
Club look and match colours
The badge and kit identity are built around green and white. The oak trees, footballs and 1985 date give the club a strong badge that is easy to recognise on team lists and match notes.
Those colours also make the Burrin Road setting feel consistent: green football, white trim and a community club name that belongs clearly to New Oak.
Joining New Oak Boys AFC
A new enquiry should include player age, school year, preferred pathway, previous playing experience and whether the request is for boys, girls, senior or over 35 football.
Families should ask for the current team contact, training time, registration step and match venue before attending. Visiting teams should confirm the Burrin Road pitch and arrival time with the home contact.
