TULLAMORE Rugby Club has received a major boost to its development plans with a €30,000 donation from Lumcloon Power Ltd and Shannonbridge Power Ltd, owned by Lumcloon Energy and their partner VPI, an international power company shaping a sustainable energy future. This funding will support the club’s expanding Rugby Campus and Pitch Development Project and contribute to the continued success of the 500 Club initiative.
This investment arrives at a key time for Tullamore Rugby Club, which is advancing a multi-phase development programme focused on upgrading pitches, improving training facilities, and creating a modern, sustainable sporting campus for players, coaches, and the wider community.
Sharon Reams, Director of Lumcloon Energy, said: “Tullamore Rugby Club is a cornerstone of the local sporting community, and we’re proud to play a part in helping them realise their development ambitions. The club’s passion, commitment, and drive to create top-class facilities for young people and adults alike makes it a great cause to support.”

We are extremely grateful to Lumcloon Power Ltd and Shannonbridge Power Ltd for their commitment to community sport and to the future of Tullamore Rugby Club.”
Lumcloon Power Ltd and Shannonbridge Power Ltd expressed their happiness in supporting local organisations that promote participation, teamwork, and community wellbeing.
