The Sports Capital Programme is the main channel of Government support for developing sports facilities and purchasing sports equipment for sports clubs and organisations across Ireland.
Grants are available to sports clubs, voluntary and community groups, national governing bodies of sport (NGBs) and local authorities. Its aims are to:
- assist voluntary and community organisations, (NGBs), local authorities and in some cases ETBs 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.
Applications can only be made online this year and all interested bodies should go to www.sportscapitalprogramme.ie to register and make an application.
