EUR2.9m funding for Irish sports schemes
More than 50 local authority-backed sports schemes across Ireland are to receive a share of EUR2.9m (£2.5m) worth of investment from the Irish government.
The announcement was made by minister of state for tourism and sport, Michael Ring, with the funding designed to improve facilities and increase participation. Ring said: "This funding is being allocated to projects which will boost participation in sport, such as new playing surfaces, outdoor gym equipment and fitness trails, floodlighting and refurbishment of changing facilities etc."
"This is not a new round of the Sports Capital Programme, but rather a targeted measure for local authority facilities. No decision has been made on the timing of a new round of the Sports Capital Programme."
