Sports Capital Programme

Tuesday 27 March 2012

The Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport launched The Sports Capital Programme on Wednesday March 28th. The Irish Sports Council are responsible for the administration of the Grants Scheme for National Governing Bodies of Sport

This Sports Capital Programme aims to foster an integrated and planned approach to developing sports and physical recreation facilities throughout the country. In particular, its objectives are to:

  • assist voluntary and community organisations, national governing bodies (NGBs) of sport, local authorities and in some cases VECs and schools to develop high quality, safe, well-designed, sustainable facilities in appropriate locations and to provide appropriate equipment to help maximise participation in sport and physical recreation
  • prioritise the needs of disadvantaged areas in the provision of sports facilities
  • encourage the multi-purpose use of local, regional and national sports facilities by clubs, community organisations and national governing bodies of sport
