Women In Sport Club Winter Wellness Grants

Winter Wellness 

We want to encourage all women and girls to stay active this winter and take part in activities and events that promote and support mindfulness and wellbeing. 

For the second year running we will be offering club grants to support and encourage new and existing members. Following the success of HER Outdoors week we want to build on this and continue to encourage women and girls to stay fit and active mentally and physically. 

Everyone Welcome

Triathlon Ireland wants to encourage women and girls to stay active, be mindful and support wellbeing and bring their girls along too; mums, nieces, friends, cousins and grannies. This is a great opportunity for clubs to introduce the sport to new participants and to increase club membership.

 

Some ideas could be Yoga and social aimed at mothers and daughters or spin class followed by a session on nutrition or healthy eating aimed at women in your local community. You could hold a session on Midlife Health and Wellbeing followed by a yoga class. The idea could be a one off event or session or a series of initiatives. 

 

 

Available Grants

Triathlon Ireland has small grants of up to €350 available for clubs to run programmes or projects to encourage women to stay active and healthy during the winter months. The grants can support;

  • Venue hire 

  • Coaching costs/ Speaker fees 

  • Any equipment hire needed

  • Goody bags and catering

 

 

The deadline for applications is close of business on Friday 27th October.

We really want to see the grant used to encourage more women and girls to get involved in the sport so please think about how your programme will aim to do this. 

 

Club collaborations are also very welcome.
