Football under the St Cuan’s colours
St Cuan’s Utd gives players around Ahascragh and Ballinasloe a red and blue route from academy football toward youth and senior teams.
Club identity
Ahascragh football with a young club crest
St Cuan’s Utd is listed on its Clubforce store as St Cuans United, with the address Ahascragh, Ballinasloe, County Galway, H53 H395. The club crest carries the St Cuan’s Utd name, blue side panels, a red centre panel and an Est 2018 date.
For families, the practical picture is clear: this is a local club serving the Ahascragh and Ballinasloe area, with membership handled online and team activity appearing through Roscommon and District Youth Soccer League, Galway FA and SFAI records.
Home base
Ahascragh, Ballinasloe
The Clubforce record gives the club location as Ahascragh, Ballinasloe, H53 H395, with coordinates at 53.3281251, -8.2236807. Use the match notice or team contact to confirm the exact entrance, pitch and kick off time.
The club’s pitch lights campaign described the ground as a place used by the youngest academy players through to senior teams, with new lighting intended to support safe training and football across the year.
Player pathway
Academy, youth and senior football
Clubforce carries an RDYSL Youth 2025 menu item, a membership section and a 50/50 draw, which points to a club using the platform for active local operations rather than a static listing.
The pitch lights campaign also describes members from the youngest academy players to senior teams. Galway FA competition records list St Cuans Utd in a Connacht Shield mens table, while SFAI club map data includes St Cuans Utd among recognised school age clubs.
Girls and women
A visible female football step from 2022
The Ballinasloe community archive recorded St Cuan’s moving into girls football in 2022 after a strong previous season. The article described the club preparing to enter girls teams for the first year after RDYSL connected with the Midwestern Girls League.
The same piece recorded a two day girls soccer launch, strong underage registration numbers and the formation of the club’s first women’s soccer team. That gives girls and women a clear place in the public club story.
Parents asking about girls football should include the player’s year of birth, experience level and whether the enquiry is for academy, school age or adult football.
What to check
Current football details before you travel
Small community clubs can have changing team lists from season to season, so the live contact route is more useful than a fixed list of squads. Check the current team, coach, venue, footwear and arrival time before travelling.
| Area | What families should confirm |
|---|---|
| Membership | Use Clubforce to check the current registration route and any age specific options. |
| Youth teams | Ask which RDYSL age groups are active for the current season. |
| Girls football | Confirm current girls and women’s team availability with the club. |
| Senior football | Use current competition notices for adult fixtures, venues and kick off times. |
Community
Pitch lights, membership and local support
The Shine a Light fundraiser presented floodlights as a community project for St Cuan’s Utd, intended to improve safe training and playing time for all ages. It described the club as a place where local children and families learn teamwork, discipline and enjoyment through sport.
That community angle fits the Clubforce setup: membership, a draw page, a club app link and a fundraising story all point to a club that depends on local support as much as match results.
First enquiry
How to contact the right person
For a first message, include the player’s year of birth, whether the enquiry is for boys, girls or adult football, the part of Ahascragh or Ballinasloe you are travelling from, and any previous playing experience.
Training nights, membership options and squad availability should be checked directly with St Cuan’s Utd before a player attends.
