Irish Sailing Foundation Revenue

About Irish Sailing Foundation

Foundation VISION: To generate the required financial resources for Ireland to scale-up and execute its world-class sailing programme. Irish Sailing works tirelessly to promote sailing in Ireland and abroad and has been successful in securing funding of almost €1 million euro from Sport Ireland. However, to compete on a par with other nations, a further €2 million is required annually to realise the ambitions of our talented Performance sailors. For this reason, the Irish Sailing Foundation was formed to bridge the financial gap and provide the Performance Pathway with the funds necessary to increase coaching hours, upgrade equipment and provide world class sport science support to a greater number of high-potential Irish sailors. The Performance Pathway has a proven track record of success and is made up of Junior, Academy, Development and Olympic squads and it provides young, talented and ambitious Irish sailors with the opportunity to move up through the ranks from an early age. In order to ensure we keep the young talent progressing we must secure the financial assistance they need to remain in the game. While Sport Ireland has generously supported the Performance Pathway, the transition to the senior ranks exposes additional financial constraints which the Irish Sailing Foundation and a Corporate Sponsor (for the team, sails & a proposed Centre of Excellence) will help to ease. With the help of our visionary Support Network at home and abroad, we are generating the resources required by young sailors launching from their local pier onto an Olympic podium. Foundation MISSION: Build a global network of supporters with a passion for Irish Sporting Success Secure philanthropic donations to enable the Olympic Steering Group to fully fund the Performance Pathway Remove the financial barrier in the progression of talent along the Performance Pathway Ensure talented Irish sailors are free to focus on sailing, not fundraising.
