Irish Squash will distribute almost €23,000 in funding to affiliated clubs under Phase III of the Irish Government’s Sports Energy Supports Scheme. The generous funding will be welcomed by the seven clubs that applied through Irish Squash, with the funding made available to support clubs with the increase in energy costs experienced of late. Many of the clubs that applied will have already received their grant funding, which was provided by the Irish Government and Sport Ireland.
Irish Squash CEO, Scott Graham, commented: “I am sure the funding secured via the Sports Energy Supports Scheme will be warmly welcomed by the clubs that applied and received grants. We are very thankful to Sport Ireland and the Government for this vital funding. The funding will help clubs deal with the increased cost of energy, keep courts open and heated for our members to play and socialise through sport, and ultimately allow us to continue growing the game.”
Clubs are encouraged to affiliate with Irish Squash to be eligible for and notified of similar funding opportunities.
