The club has a long-standing relationship with the local secondary school Skerries Community College, formerly De La Salle Skerries, where many past and current players have attended. The college makes use of the grounds at Holmpatrick for training and home matches.
The club currently fields teams for adults (1st XV, 2nd XV, 3rd XV and at u19s level), and for mini-rugby and youths from age 6 up to 19 years.
