Norahmac Racing Club

A message from Norah McEllistrim

Norah and Sprightly Peter, aged three and two respectively. Growing up with greyhounds!

If you’re reading this bit then you are probably new to the website and not yet a member of our greyhound racing club. So thanks for coming by and taking a closer look.

My dad, ‘Paddymac’ as he was affectionately known, came over from Tralee  many years ago. He began training dogs at Wimbledon back in the 1920s. I grew up playing, watching and helping with the dogs. Greyhound racing is, and always will be, my life!

Norah, 2011. Still growing up with greyhounds!

‘Paddymac’  won most of the big prizes in greyhound racing but the Greyhound Derby eluded him.I’m out to set the record straight.  ‘Norahmac’ is going to break the hoodoo and to get things on the move, I have decided to become a ‘brand’… the “norahmacracingclub”.

Our aim? To win the Greyhound Derby! Along the way we are going to have lots of fun at all levels of greyhound racing, on and off the track. I look forward to meeting you. I promise to do my best to share my passion for the sport, and compassion towards the dogs, with you all.
