Texaco Support for Sport Applications Open
The Texaco Support for Sport initiative is open for
applications for 2025, and your club can get €5,000!
Sports clubs instil in all of us a strong sense of identity,
deep feelings of belonging and the reassurance of being part of the 'team'.
Whether in the throes of competition or cheering from the
sidelines, how well our clubs perform and however much they may achieve are
things that warm the heart and stoke the pride of supporters everywhere.
Managed by dedicated volunteers committed to their task, sports clubs are the very essence of community. A unifying element and a focal point for good, they are the magnets to which so many of us are drawn – a home-from-home where those who are fit and able meet the challenge of competition and those less energetic or less able enjoy the friendship and the camaraderie that all members and supporters share.
Open to properly constituted and officially registered clubs throughout Ireland, the programme sets aside a €130,000 fund to be divided and distributed on a county-by-county basis in twenty-six equal amounts of €5,000 to each successful club.
Leading the adjudication process is Texaco Support for Sport
ambassador, Irish rugby international and radio and TV broadcaster, Donncha
O’Callaghan. With his unique insight and perspective - coupled with knowledge
and experience gained at club and international level - Donncha’s independence
and objectivity will inform the adjudication process in a manner we believe
will be universally respected.
Applications to the Texaco Support for Sport initiative opened on the 4th November 2024 and close on January 31st 2025.
