🚍⚽ Dawson Devoy, Ross Tierney, Adam McDonnell and Hannah O’Brien paid a visit to pupils in St Finbarr’s in Cabra this week to show their support for the Dublin Bus Schools Programme.
Dublin Bus have been long-time partners of Bohemian FC, aligning with our community values.
The Dublin Bus Schools Programme promotes awareness of the benefits of public transport, develops positive onboard behaviour and helps students recognise their shared responsibility as passengers.
The programme is free of charge for schools. For more information, visit dublinbus.ie
Well done to our over 65 Walking Football team who finished up their league campaign today with two good wins over Shamrock Rovers & St.Josephs and a draw with St Pat’s.
A big thank you to all involved in setting up the league and ensuring it ran so well, it’s been a fantastic addition to the Wlaking Football programme and we look forward to next season 👏🏻

🥫👕Food and Clothes Drive this Friday
Bohemian FC will once again host a Food Drive and a Clothes Drive, in partnership with The Éire Nua Food Initiative and Tiglin respectively, at Friday's match against Shelbourne from 6.30pm onwards.
Deposit areas:
1. Dalymount Lane (Jodi Stand)
2. St Peter’s Rd Car Park (Des Kelly Stand)
For the Food Drive, we encourage We invite supporters to bring the following: Tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits, pasta, rice, pasta sauces, beans, spaghetti, cereals, soups, pot noodles, and any other food items with a life span of two weeks or more.
For the Clothes Drive, we invite supporters to bring good quality clothes both old and new, with Tiglin in particular need of the following men’s items: Toiletries (new), socks, underwear, runners, warm jackets, hoodies, tracksuit bottoms.
Men’s clothes are in particularly high demand, but women’s clothes are also required – children’s clothes are not accepted.
The Food Drive is in conjunction with The Éire Nua Food Initiative (ENFI), who feed the homeless and hungry at the GPO, on Mondays and Wednesdays, from 6.30pm onwards. ENFI also alleviates food poverty in its own local community of Finglas, by dropping necessities to those struggling to make ends meet.
The Clothes Drive is in conjunction with Tiglin, a charity providing rehabilitation, supported housing, and frontline services for people overcoming addiction and homelessness.
We’ve been having great fun the last few weeks with our classes in Central Model School, Scoil Chaoimhin, O’Connell’s and Gardiner Street who are taking part in Bohs MOVE 🍎🏃♂️
Each week we learn about a different element of a healthy lifestyle with fun activities taking place inside & outside of the classroom ❤️🖤

A big thank you to the team at the NEIC and DCC for organising such a brilliant event and for their continued support of our work in the NEIC.

With only a handful of games left before Dalymount Park's demolition and redevelopment, Gerry Farrell, one of the club's historians, will be leading a final set of tours around the famous old ground, this Sunday, September 6th, at 11am and again at 2pm.
The date was specifically chosen as it is (almost) 125 years since the first game was played in Dalymount Park, when Bohemians defeated Shelbourne 4-2 on September 7th 1901.
The tour will tell the story of Bohemians and of Dalymount and give attendees a chance to see areas likes the Jackie Jameson bar, home and away dressing rooms and the club's offices.
Several Bohs fans will also have some rare memorabilia on display on the day.
The tours are free but please arrive on time in Dalymount Lane in front of the Jodi stand at either 11am or 2pm.
