The Cork Sports Programmes are a new initiative from the Irish Sports Council and the Cork Sports Partnership to help develop sport in Cork. There are currently 9 sports involved in the initiative, with almost all of the programmes under way.
The Sports Partnership aims to bring an additional 5 sports into the programme in 2010, which will see the partnership working closer with the National Governing Bodies, County Boards, and Development Officers of the sports to see where and how to implement a sustainable development programme for each of the sports in Cork.
The Sports Partnership will be providing support to the current 9 sports programmes by working with County Boards, Governing Bodies and Development Officers. This support will come in the form of providing equipment, coaching courses, tutor training, programme costs, club development and any other help the clubs and sport needs to help increase and sustain participation levels.
One of the main focuses of these programmes is to create more opportunities for people to get involved in sport and to keep them involved after the programme. These opportunities will come in the form of linking schools, clubs and communities together and strengthening the relationships between them so that the opportunity for participation is for the long term and not just a once off.
