New Funding Boost for Women’s Gymnastics in Ireland
Sport Ireland has officially announced an investment of €80,000 for Gymnastics Ireland. This funding is part of the national Women in Sport (WIS) Programme, which aims to increase participation and support for women and girls in various sporting activities across the country.
The WIS Programme is a key initiative designed to address the gender gap in Irish sports. By providing financial support to specific projects, the programme helps national governing bodies create better opportunities for female athletes, coaches, and volunteers to get involved at all levels.
Gymnastics Ireland plans to use this grant to develop new initiatives that encourage more girls to join the sport and stay active. The organisation hopes that the funding will help them improve their existing programmes and reach a wider audience of young athletes throughout Ireland.
This investment highlights the ongoing commitment of Sport Ireland to promote equality in the sporting world. By focusing on women and girls, the programme aims to ensure that everyone has the chance to develop their skills and enjoy the physical and social benefits of participating in gymnastics.
