3 million euro boost for Galway sports clubs

Galway Bay fm newsroom – Over 3 million euro has been sanctioned for Galway clubs and organisations in this year's Sports Capital Programme. The funding will benefit over 100 sports clubs and community organisations across the city and county. The individual allocations range from 800 euro to 94 thousand euro. It includes specific allocations for Galway City and County Councils for outdoor gym equipment and all weather pitches. Galway West TD and Junior Minister Sean Kyne says the works enabled through this investment will benefit organisations from a wide range of sports including GAA, soccer, golf, boxing, athletics, rowing, tennis, climbing and hockey.
