We would like to welcome everyone back for the 2025 Season and wish all of our Athletes and their Families all the very best for the New Year ahead and we hope that you have enjoyed the Festivities of the Season!
ClubZap Membership & Communications Platform:
We would like to thank you for your patience as we change our Club Membership and Communications platform over to ClubZap - being the largest Club in the country – we’re sure that you can imagine that this is not a small undertaking, and we thank you for your understanding.
We ask that you keep an eye out for communication from ClubZap regarding DSDAC 2025 Membership – and if you haven’t already done so – that you download the ClubZap App to ensure you continue to receive Club Communications. Click here to download the ClubZap Phone App.
Juvenile Indoor T&F Season:
After the excitement of the XC Season we are moving straight into the Indoor Season with the Dublin Juvenile Indoor Championships coming up towards the end of the month – entry forms for all 5 Days of Competition will be circulated shortly.
All athletes will need to be registered for 2025 with both DSD and Athletics Ireland in order for their entries to be processed via the online AAI entry system – we encourage you to renew your Membership in a timely fashion so that we are able to renew AAI Registrations ahead of the entry deadlines to allow us to enter your athletes – remember that Membership can be spread out and paid in instalments also.
2025 Juvenile Age Categories:
As we enter the New Year – remember that your athletes will also have moved up an Age Group from 1st January – we ask that you familiarise yourself ahead of the Indoor Competition before submitting their entries. Click here to view the 2025 Juvenile Age Categories.
2025 Juvenile Competition Calendar:
As well as being the largest Athletics Club in Ireland we are a competitive club too. While no performance pressure is put upon any individual Juvenile/Adult athlete, as a competitive club we do expect and encourage athletes to compete in some of the various competitions. If you join a GAA/Hockey/Rugby club you’d be expected to turn out for your team – DSD is a team too and we encourage all athletes to take part in the various competitions.

We look forward to seeing everyone back at training over the next while and are looking forward to the fun of the upcoming Indoor Season!
Yours in Sport
Sharon Wilson (Director of Athletics Operations)
& Damien Moran (Head Juvenile Coach)
