About Borrisokane A.C.
Borrisokane Athletic Club serves Borrisokane in County Tipperary, Ireland. Athletics Ireland lists it as a mixed club, with training at Ballyhaden. A distinctive part of its recent story is Run with Dunne, a race programme in which people run, walk and wheel together. The club's fundraising account explains how wheelchair racer Cillian Dunne became its first wheelchair athlete and how the initiative helped welcome more para-athletes into the club.
The programme combines a 5K with a children's 1K and raises funds for inclusive athletics and Dunne's sporting ambitions. Borrisokane also has a link to Gaelic football: in a 2020 GAA interview, Tipperary player Philip Austin credited his youth athletics at the club with helping develop his speed and fitness. Current membership and renewal are available through the Athletics Ireland club page. Prospective athletes should confirm the appropriate training group and arrangements before attending Ballyhaden.
