📢Women in Sport Week 2025 is here!

Sport Ireland, National Governing Bodies and LSP's across the country are ready to celebrate Women in Sport Week!

We want to celebrate some of Wexford's most inspiring females involved in all aspects of sport. Whether they are representing their club, county or country, involved in media, coaching, officiating or volunteering, these incredible ladies are breaking barriers and inspiring the next generation of girls.

Today's theme is for #WomenInSportWeek is "Visibility". And Wexford's Special Olympian, Jenna Carty needs no introduction! While representing her country and winning gold, she is truly an inspiration to all around her. We sat down with Jenna recently to learn a little more about this great athlete.

55 years ago, my mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, founded @SpecialOlympics. Her legacy stood for challenging the status quo and believing in the best in all of us. Take action to support her vision– let's build an inclusive world for all! https://t.co/VjAif4388r #ChooseToInclude
