Sport Ireland has launched a national survey to better understand volunteering in sport and support the development of a more diverse and inclusive volunteer base.

The survey seeks input from both volunteers and non-volunteers, including those from underrepresented groups to better understand experiences, barriers, and opportunities within the sector 👇

The protests in Ireland are not about just fuel! They are about the distance between Ireland on this graph and every other modern and developed economy. Ireland is second wealthiest but gets waaaaay less than any other country for that wealth. By a golden mile.

That visual gap in this graph? That’s what people are protesting. It’s a lack of infrastructure and the everyday enshittification of services, the economy, and the additional difficulty of trying to live, relative to peers in any other country. It also highlights why people don’t get uniformly listened to! - because there is no government architecture to engage meaningfully across this huge gap.

That gap is a three hour drive to work in traffic, a 14 month wait for an MRI, buses that don’t arrive, trains that don’t exist, schools that have no places for your kids, houses that are unaffordable, pubs that close before midnight, €12 sandwiches, expensive fuel.

People feel this gap, even if they can’t explain it precisely. And that builds into resentment, and ultimately protest. Fuel just happened to be the next thing that could be pointed to, today.

The @TUS_ie City North Arena proposal is centred around an indoor community velodrome with a 200m training track. It states the exact use of the arena will be determined by the management plan of the university, but could be used for many indoor sports and events. 2/4

This is absolutely fantastic news!
A limerick based cycling club has picked up nearly 30 medals in track cycling over the last 12 months and now this 💪🏻 I’d say limerick is the capital of cycling now

Annalise Murphy pushes again on a climb.

Speers works hard and grabs the wheel and the rest follow suit.

[Cycling Ireland @CyclingIreland]

First major thinning out now!

Murphy lays down the gauntlet on a tough section here and only the strongest can keep the wheel.

Two riders already dropped but now we’ve Elia Tutty, Ellen Ni Cleirigh and Abi Conway losing contact.

And just as we say that 👀

Jemma Speers attacks! 💥

But she’s chased down with Caoimhe O’Brien and Annalise Murphy making sure she’s brought back.

O’Brien slowly making her way back as the first one or two riders lose contact.

NCW putting the hurt on this little climb here.
