Support for Clubs and Event Organisers
—————————————————————–
The most successful clubs, regardless of the sport, are those that offer their members and the broader sporting community professionally organised events at a reasonable price. These events are usually organised on a voluntary basis by the club committee, so how can you minimise the work and maximise the impact? This step by step guide to organising a club event is a must read.

Keep Safe
—————————————————————–
The RunIreland range of RonHill branded running gear was specifically chosen with your safety in mind. The Vision range of clothing for men and women is stylish but practical and ideal for the Irish climate.
The experts at Run Ireland have chosen to support the RonHill brand yet again for the same reasons as before. ‘It’s the quality finish that makes this gear so easy to wear,’ comments Ray O’Connor, Connemarathon Race Director and marathon runner, ‘I wore RonHill for the six days I spent in the desert during the Marathon Des Sables – the breathable fabric helped to keep me as cool as possible in the desert 
and the detail in the finish
of the seams ensured that there was no rubbing effect. Just a few weeks ago I used the RonHill layering technique for the Connemara100 – the reflective panels and LED systems were essential when running through the night. The shower proof, fast drying outer layers kept me dry.’ Go on, you know you want to!
