Our Vision  

  • To promote all aspects of Irish life here in Calgary – sporting, cultural and social.  

  •  To support the development of our members in an environment of sportsmanship, inclusiveness, mutual respect and social responsibility. 

 

Our Mission  

“We belong not because of who we are or where we come from, being here means belonging, belonging means knowing that you're part of a community that has a place for all, where potential is nurtured, where individuals become teams who honor the legacy of those who went before and strive to build legacy of their own.” 

"Some of us play, some of us used to play, some of us never played.  We all belong. Belonging means having a voice, means being able to say what you think is right.  Being listened to.  Belonging means respecting each other means being there for each other on the pitch.  Off the pitch.” 

“Belonging means rolling our sleeves up and doing what needs to be done we all belong whether it’s our first day or our hundredth year.  We all belong here because this place belongs to us all.”
