Delighted to see the launch of the League of Ireland Economic Impact Report. With investment into infrastructure & Academy Development, the social & financial impact of the League to society could be multiples of existing levels. Huge opportunity for further growth.

Football desperately needs the support of the next government to help develop a full-time academy system. Without that support, 🇮🇪 will fall further down the rankings over the next 5 to 10 years, esp considering the impact of Brexit has yet to reach the senior international team.

More pitches. More game time ⚽️ Encourage your local candidates to continue to invest in spaces to play ahead of the General Election. Learn more 👉 fai.ie/elections2024/…

With 8 days to go before #GE24, here are some of the reasons why we need government investment/support into our academy system if 🇮🇪 is to consistently qualify for FIFA World Cups. Rankings directly relate to chances of qualifying, as do the number of players in Top 5 Leagues.

The last weekend of canvassing ahead of #GE24. If we want to see successful 🇮🇪 teams again on the world stage, we need to tackle these 3 key issues. That's why we need the next government's support to help us create a sustainable player development model for our young people.
