Overview
Sport Ireland was established on the 1st October 2015 and brings together the Irish Sports Council (ISC), the Sport Ireland Institute, National Sports Campus and Coaching Ireland to drive the future of Irish sport. Background The Institute of Sport (now the Sport Ireland Institute) was set up by the government in 2006 and based at the Sport Ireland National Sports Campus in Abbotstown. Our remit is to deliver world class support services to high performance athletes mandated by the Irish Sports Council. In 2009 the Institute successfully transitioned and took over responsibility for the science and medicine player athlete services from Coaching Ireland (formerly the NCTC). In December 2009, we moved into the Institute HQ building and in late 2010 with a grant from the Department of Arts Sport and Tourism began commissioning the clinics and labs out of which we deliver services. The science, medicine and lifestyle support services from our HQ became operational in April 2011. Our focus We focus on three key components to positively impact the performance of Irish athletes. These are: Systems, Services and People Informed by the analysis of the wider sport system the Institute is working with the sports to deliver: System Development: high performance planning, review and debrief, development of process and protocols. Service Development: integrated and focused support services across science, medicine and lifestyle management. People Development: high performance coach development, accreditation of service providers, professional development for coaches, performance directors and service providers. - See more at: http://www.instituteofsport.ie
