    Hi
    Im new to boards and new to Nenagh!

    I was just wondering if anyone knows of any activities/clubs/societies for newcomers to join? In the 21-25 age group is it possible to join an athletics club with no previous experience? Is there any ju-jitsu/boxercise/dance (Irish/step/line dancing)/pilates classes etc in Nenagh or North Tipperary.

    Hope someone can help or has some ideas!

    Thanks!! Do you know if its possible to join at the age of 24 with no previous experience of being in an athletic club or is it just open to kids joining up?

    I'll ring tomorrow and find out more!!

    No connection with the club (or county) so couldn't possible comment.

    Our own club welcomes all and sundry. An interest is all that is required. I imagine most clubs would be of a similar disposition.

    Nenagh Olympic wouldn't be suitable for you at all. It is only really a juvenile club.

    Running for adults is organised by either the Nenagh Triathlon Club (they organise a beginners run from Tescos on a Wednesday evening at 6:30, also running in the CBS school on Friday evenings at 6:30) or the Fit 4 Life group - I think they run on Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings.

    Yes there is a boxercise class in Nenagh, but I am not sure where it takes place. I am pretty sure there is a pilates and yoga class too down in the Abbeycourt Hotel.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks again

    The Fit4Life group are associated with the North Tipp Sports Partnership. You can find their Facebook page at - http://www.facebook.com/pages/North-Tipperary-Sports-Partnership/132187840176928

    The fourth post down on that Facebook page deals with the Nenagh Fit4Life Group:

    "Would you like to jog/run with a fun group?? Come along to the Nenagh Leisure Running group on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm at the CBS track Nenagh."

    Hope that helps.
