COUNTDOWN IS ON FOR CORK SPORTS CLUBS

Entry is open to all clubs 

 

Former Irish rugby international, Donncha O’Callaghan (above) has issued a call to sports clubs in Cork reminding members that the countdown is on to the 31^st January closing date by which applications 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.”

 

Now in its fifth year, the annual initiative has already seen funding of over €500,000 distributed to clubs across the 26 counties, of which €20,000 has come to Co. Cork with successful applicants Riverstown Amateur Boxing Club, Glanmire (2021), Rockbán Ladies Football and Camogie Club (2022), Bandon Ravens Basketball Club (2023) and Glanmire Ladies Basketball Club (2024) receiving €5,000 in each case.
