A Huge Thank You to AXA Shannon

A big thank you to the wonderful team from AXA Shannon who recently spent time at Shannon A.C. as part of AXA Week for Good.

The team rolled up their sleeves and helped with some much-needed weeding and tidying around our track and entrance areas, making a real difference to our club grounds.

As a community club, we rely on the support and goodwill of volunteers, and we’re incredibly grateful for the time, effort and enthusiasm shown by the AXA team.

Thank you for helping to keep Shannon A.C. looking its best and for supporting our athletes, members and community.

Stronger Together.
