 A TOTAL of 40 sports clubs and organisations across Limerick are set to benefit from €1,303,363 investment in local projects. 

The funding for Limerick is part of over a €26m allocation from the latest round of Sports Capital & Equipment Grants programme both at local and regional level.

The latest allocations under the Sports Capital and Equipment Programme are in response to equipment-only applications which sporting organisations submitted. Over 900 sports groups nationally were successful in their applications for various types of equipment which will be of practical benefit to multiple sports organisations, their members and athletes across Ireland.
