Why not affiliate your new club to the Irish Tug of War Association. This will enable you to compete against other teams throughout your province and also compete in the National Championships in a division which suits your clubs ability. The affiliation year runs from April 1st to March 31st.
Clubs can apply for Full Club membership once they have competed in National Championships during the previous year. Only fully affiliated clubs will have a vote at the National AGM each March. The cost of full membership is €250. Once affiliated, all individual club members must also apply for Individual Membership. See below.
