Following many hours work by volunteers, in October 2018, we achieved planning permission for the extension and refurbishment of our clubhouse to meet the demands from our increasing male and female playing numbers.
Work has now been completed on Phase One of our Clubhouse Development, the foundations have been laid, the new changing rooms area is built and a lift has been added to a new stairwell construction, to aid access within the Clubhouse for those with disabilities.
This is fantastic news and a significant milestone has been reached.
Total to Hit Target: £304,000.00
To raise £500,000 to fund, firstly, the completion of Phase 1 of the building development, costing approximately £440,000.
The Club have already raised over £200,000 plus council grants and other small grants totalling over £110,000. This leaves a shortfall of £150,000. This will be met by 2020 Vision.
Secondly 2020 Vision will raise “match funding” targeted at forthcoming large capital grants.
By raising an additional £350,000 will put our Club in a very strong position to attract large Sport NI or Big Lottery match funding grants.
The names of all contributors will be inscribed on a 'Commemorative Board'.
This 'Commemorative Board' will be will be located, pride of place, in a prominent position in the newly renovated City of Armagh RFC Clubhouse.
As we continue on our journey, we ask all members, players, supporters and friends of City of Armagh RFC to support the Club's ongoing fundraising efforts and 2020 Vision. This is your opportunity to make a massive difference to the future of City of Armagh Rugby Club.
