Maximum grants of €1,500 and €1,000 are available under the schemes
Tipperary Sports Partnership has announced two funding streams to develop sport and increase physical activity in Tipperary.
The first, Scheme 1 - Coaching and Development Fund, aims to develop sport and increase physical activity in Tipperary.
The Coaching Fund aims to support and develop quality coaching in Tipperary and to encourage all coaches/volunteers to undertake appropriate education and training.
The Development Fund aims to support the setting up of new clubs or sections within an existing club to increase their capacity to deliver sport and physical activity, and in turn increase membership and participation locally. This funding scheme is supported by Sport Ireland and Tipperary County Council.
The maximum that can be applied for by any applicant under this scheme is €1,000.
Scheme 2 - Return to Sport Fund - is part of a programme from the Government of Ireland, implemented through Sport Ireland and its network of Local Sports Partnerships to support the sport and physical activity sector with returning to activity following the easing of Covid-19 restrictions.
It aims to support eligible clubs/organisations with access to funding to reopening activity for their members, as well as operational challenges.
The maximum that can be applied for by any applicant under this scheme is €1,500.
Priority will be given to key target groups as identified in the Tipperary Sports Partnership Strategic Plan such as disadvantaged areas, older adults, young people, people with disabilities, women and girls, unemployed and ethnic minorities, under both streams.
The closing date for receipt of applications under both funding streams is Wednesday May 10 at 4pm.
Further information, criteria and application forms are available on the Tipperary Sports Partnership website – www.tipperarysports.ie or by contacting the office. Tel: 052-6166201 or email: info@tipperarysports.ie
