HISTORY
Club History
Tallaght Town AFC is one of the oldest soccer teams in Tallaght and was relaunched in 2017 following a successful merger with one of Tallaght’s fastest growing soccer clubs – Postal Aylesbury FC.
With the club expanding rapidly and green space at a premium in the area, our previous chiarman Alan Nolan and now current chairman Alan Merriman along with a Tallaght Town AFC stalwart Mick Whelan set about securing a return to Carolan Park for the club. The land was completely overgrown with derelict cabins, however with a strong, committee,management team and parents working diligently for months, the overgrown fields and surrounds were cleared to provide the space for football.
What We Do
Tallaght Town AFC provides football opportunities for players of all ages, from youth development through to senior football.
We create an enjoyable, inclusive and development-focused environment where players can learn, compete and grow through structured football.
Our programmes focus on player development, coach education, clear football pathways and stronger community connections.
Through training, assessment, coaching development, community activities and club programmes, we continue to build a modern and well-organised football club.
Our approach is centred on technical development, teamwork, confidence, learning and creating opportunities for every player.
Who We Are

Our club brings together players, coaches, parents, volunteers and supporters to create a positive, inclusive and enjoyable football environment.
We are committed to developing players, supporting coaches and strengthening our connection with the Tallaght community through football.
