The Athlete Award programme investment aims to help ‘Our (NI) athletes be among the best in the World’, by targeting athletes who have the potential to achieve success and excel in Olympics, Paralympics and Commonwealth Games.

For the 2017-23 period our Athlete Awards supported 235 individual athletes and 4 team sports, with 54 athletes transitioning onto Sport Ireland’s Carding Scheme or UK Sport’s Athlete Personal Awards (APA).

Why your views matter:

The purpose and aim of this questionnaire is to help us review the Athlete Award programme. We want to ensure that it still supports NI Athletes becoming the best in the World.

Your information is invaluable in helping us get a better understanding of your views on the application, assessment and the needs of the sports sector.

Athletes, coaching and programme managers are invited to complete the review using the following link:
