Kerry Local Sports Partnership facilitates a specified number of grant related schemes, namely:

- Kerry LSP Sports Grants

Background to Kerry LSP Sports Grants

The primary objective of Kerry LSP, under its strategic aim of participation is to facilitate increased opportunities and participation in sport and physical activity in County Kerry, across our key target groups. One such way of achieving this objective is to encourage children/adults to join a sport and maintain participation within this sport over a prolonged period on time.

As a means of supporting local sports clubs, Kerry LSP disseminates sports grants through the assistance of Irish Sports Council funds. Grants are allocated by way of application process.

Two strands of grant funding disseminated are as follows:

- Coach Education Grant

- Club Development Grant (Theme Focused)

                               o Theme 1 - Establishing a school/club link

                               o Theme 2 - Increased disability provision within a club

Over time there has been a significant level of interest in the grant scheme, from all parts of the county. To date a total of €16428 has been allocated to mother and toddler groups within the county.
