A local club for children who want a clear place to play
For a family near Kilsheelan, Carrick on Suir, Ballypatrick or the Slievenamon side of South Tipperary, the club offers a local football setting with active schoolboys and schoolgirls fixtures. Parents can check current teams through the South Tipperary Schoolboys League fixture and result pages, then use the club social channel for day to day notices.

That gives children a route they can understand from their first teams through to older age groups.
Best first step: check the current fixture list for Slievenamon Celtic, then contact the club through its official social channel to confirm the right age group, training night and venue.
Two football locations to check before travelling
Slievenamon Celtic appears on the South Tipperary Schoolboys League map in Kilsheelan, while the wider club setup also uses KBK Sportsfield in Ballypatrick. Families and visiting teams should always follow the venue named on the fixture notice, because age group games can move between club locations and competition venues.

Schoolboys, schoolgirls and the next step into junior football
South Tipperary Schoolboys League pages show Slievenamon Celtic active in school age competition, with current fixture and result pages giving families a live view of the season. The club identity also links into Kilsheelan United, which gives older players a familiar local name as they move toward adult football.
Schoolboys football
The league fixture pages are the best guide to active boys teams, opponents and age groups. Parents should confirm squad availability directly with the club before turning up for a first session.
Girls football
The club has a visible girls pathway in South Tipperary football. For new girls joining, the right first question is age group, training venue, and whether the current squad is taking new players.
Junior connection
Kilsheelan United gives the underage club identity a connection to adult football. That local next step can help teenagers see a route beyond school age football.
Standards and volunteers
Public club features describe a volunteer led club with FAI Club Mark recognition. For parents, that points to a club paying attention to governance as well as teams on the pitch.
From Kilsheelan roots to the Slievenamon Celtic name
The club story begins with Kilsheelan United in the 1990s, when local football volunteers created a team for young players in the area. Underage football grew again from 2013, and the Slievenamon Celtic name followed in 2017 as the youth side developed its own recognisable identity.
The combined Slievenamon Celtic / Kilsheelan United crest reflects that story. It carries the local mountain, a castle symbol, the yellow shield and the Kilsheelan United name, giving children a badge that links place, history and football together.
How to follow the season
The South Tipperary Schoolboys League fixture and result pages are the most useful live pages for families and visiting teams. They show when Slievenamon Celtic teams are due to play, who they are playing, and whether a recent result has been posted.
