Rockcorry Community Games was re established in 2023.

It provides opportunities for children and young people to grow and develop in a positive and healthy way while experiencing a wide range of sporting and cultural activities. It is a great way to encourage children, aged between 6 years and 16 years, to try out new activities, while also developing new abilities, interests, and skills. It also gives children the opportunity to interact with other children and to make new friends.

The primary aim to have fun and participation but there is also a competitive element to it. This year 2024, was our first year running in over 20 years and we celebrated great success with children participating in the various local area & county level activities in Art, Hand writing, swimming, athletics, gymnatics, talent, and table tennis.
