Description
We Are Sport
In planning for the future, Sport Ireland seeks the voices of our youth!
Sport Ireland wishes to better understand the current landscape for women in sport and identify common barriers and opportunities. A focus group will be held on June 25th at Irish Sport HQ and we welcome young people from ages 16 to 18.
The outcomes from this focus groups will help to inform Sport Ireland on the best way forward to increase women’s involvement as advocates, leaders and participants from recreational sport to the podium.
Sport Ireland has appointed Lisa Clancy of Clansult Ltd and Sarah O’Shea of SOS Sports Consult to complete this project including the facilitation of each focus group session. Both consultants will work in partnership with Sport Ireland’s Women in Sport Advisory Group, established to support this process.
The focus groups will concentrate on three key areas:
1. Participation, 2. Performance, 3. Leadership and Governance.
Spaces are limited.
The evening will begin with registration at 6.45pm. The focus group session will start at 7pm sharp.
Registration is open until 21st June at 18:00.
