Welcome to Kerry Recreation & Sports Partnership, an initiative of the Irish Sports Council.

 

Kerry Recreation and Sports Partnership Launch  - Please click here for more information   

 

 

We have made it our vision to have more people participating in sport and physical activity in County Kerry. In pursuit of this vision, the Local Sports Partnership mission is to enable the ongoing development of quality sporting and active recreational opportunities throughout Kerry in an environment that promotes healthy lifestyles, maximum participation and achievement.

 

In achieving this mission we will place particular focus on communities, older adults, women and girls, people with disabilities, and those who are unemployed.

Girls Outside - Kerry


 

Girls Outside Kerry ran from October 2010 until the beginning of May 2011. The Mountaineering Ireland project funded through the Irish Sports Council's Women in Sport Initiative provided opportunities for more than 300 teenagers and young adults to gain experiences in hillwalking and rock climbing.

The project was supported by Kerry Recreation Sports Partnership, Tralee Mountaineering Club and it was delivered by Ann O' Connor, Setanta Adventure Training. The video above was produced by FÁS TV & Video Production unit, Tralee.

Mountaineering Ireland would like to thank all those who helped to make this a successful project. MI would especially like to thank those who volunteered in the Advisory Committee; Tomás Aylward, Cora Carrig (Kerry Recreation Sports Partnership), Eileen Daly, John Healy and Martin Murphy.
