1815 F.C. is a DIY community Football Club based in Dublin that plays on a different free public pitch around the island of Ireland every week. To name a few of the many activities over its 7 years of existence; the club has devised inclusive strategies for matches, played on public pitches across Ireland, helped found new DIY Community Clubs in Belfast, Cork and Galway, lobbied for public space against developers, renamed public parks as an act of solidarity and protest, collaborated with artists, musicians and organisations such as Dublin Digital Radio and CATU, created numerous publications, shirts and club ephemera.
As a part of STARLING’s Fieldwork programme, 1815 F.C. takes us on a walk, exploring potential pitches and alternative uses of public space in Limerick City.
