The Patron Saints

The Patron Saints are a voluntary group of St Patrick's Athletic supporters. Since 2002, our members have been working closely with the club and its fans to support, deliver and fund projects across all areas of the club, with a focus on three primary areas: club, community and culture.

CLUB
Since our formation, the Patron Saints have contributed over €250,000 to projects in and around Richmond Park, improving facilities and working to improve the matchday experience for the supporters, players and staff of St Patrick's Athletic. This includes, but is not limited to, strength and conditioning equipment, groundskeeping equipment, player analysis technology and work on Richmond Park itself. We are also proud supporters of the Saints Academy.

COMMUNITY
We are really proud of the work done by the club and its supporters in the west Dublin area, using football as a positive influence in the community. In 2024, our members committed to fund the expansion of the Saints in the Community and Schools Programmes, increasing the number of people the club reaches. Over the coming years, we will be working to fund and deliver more projects in the local community.

CULTURE
The Patron Saints are committed to preserving and celebrating the heritage and tradition of our great club. Our list of events includes the Hano Cup, Santa in Richmond, Awards Night and the Hall of Fame. We deliver these projects and more, while contributing to projects undertaken by others such as supporters' buses, Shed End Invincibles displays and the St Pat's History Project, in order to improve the matchday experience and overall atmosphere around St Patrick's Athletic.
