Club history

The youth section at Bushmills FC was established just six years ago, beginning with just one squad and now boasts a membership of 200. Mervyn Greer concluded: “The whole town of Bushmills welcomed West Cork, everything about Bushmills is what made their trip memorable. Our club is a small part of the town and without the town and the community, there wouldn’t be a Bushmills United FC Youths.”
