Former Irish rugby international, Donncha O’Callaghan has issued a call to sports clubs in Tipperary reminding members not to overlook 31 January next, the closing date by which application for a €5,000 award under the Texaco Support for Sport initiative must be made.

Noting the benefit to be gained by the award, the popular broadcaster and adjudicator confirmed that “entry is open to all clubs irrespective of sporting discipline, size, membership, age, cultural appeal, or gender, including those whose application may have been unsuccessful previously.”

Held annually, the scheme has already seen funding of €260,000 distributed to clubs across the 26 counties, of which €10,000 has already come to Co. Tipperary with successful applicants Cullen Lattin AFC (2021) and Cloughjordan Football Club (2022) receiving €5,000 in each case.
