Athletics Ireland Revenue and Competitors

Athletics Ireland is the national governing body for athletics in Ireland. Our primary objective is to promote and develop the sport at every level from recreational running and schools competitions through to supporting Ireland's elite athletes in international competition. We are administered by a Board of elected volunteer members who work in tandem with our full-time staff based in Dublin and the regions. Athletics Ireland retains a strong volunteer ethos and the thousands of administrators, officials and coaches who give freely of their time play a vital role in our organization. We have 270 affiliated clubs with a combined membership of over 26,000 juvenile and senior athletes. Vision & Strategy In 2005, Athletics Ireland adopted a professional operating structure to implement our vision and strategy. This vision and strategy is focused on developing athletics as an educational and recreational activity while also raising the competitive standards of Irish athletes domestically and on the world stage.
