Sports Capital Grant Funding

Millstreet GAA is thrilled to announce that we have secured €160,000 in sports capital grant funding to upgrade our beloved GAA Hall! Built in 1990, this hall has been a cornerstone for our community, and with this funding, we’ll be enhancing our facilities to ensure it’s accessible and welcoming to everyone.

A huge thank you goes to Michael Moynihan TD for his invaluable guidance and support throughout this process, from the early planning stages to delivering the great news!

We also want to give a big shoutout to Munster Drone Services for creating a superb video that strengthened our application and provided us with fantastic footage.

Our Club Development Committee at Millstreet GAA worked tirelessly behind the scenes, coordinating this application along with several other grants.

We couldn’t have achieved this without their dedication and the incredible support of our community members and local groups who supported the grant application.

We’re excited to get this project underway in the coming months and can’t wait to see the difference it will make for our community!

Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey. Together, we’re building a brighter future for Millstreet!
