UCC Sport Scholarship Programmes Application

Posted on April 29, 2020 The UCC Department of Sport and Physical Activity has a long-established Sports Scholarship Scheme in place. The Department has remodelled Sport Scholarships in line with their new Sports Strategy.

The aim is to be the Go-To University for Sport in Ireland. We are developing a new performance strategy to enhance our support and sharpen our edge. The UCC Sport Scholarship programme is divided into two main strands: (1) UCC Individual Sport Scholarship – which is divided into three levels: Gold, Silver and Bronze.

The Individual Sport Scholarship is open to applicants involved in team sports or individual sports other than the core sports. (2) UCC Core Team Sport Scholarships which covers Hockey, Rugby, Soccer and GAA which incorporates Gaelic Football, Hurling, Ladies Gaelic Football and Camogie.

We are also delighted to have the following sponsored scholarships:

• Roy Keane UCC Sport Soccer Scholarship
• M.J. Dowling UCC Sport Hurling Scholarship
• Jason Foley Memorial Scholarship
• Corporate sponsored scholarships – these vary from year to year.

These include Bank of Ireland and Greenstar and Mycro. The Munster Council of the GAA also allocates bursaries to GAA students living in the Munster region. These bursaries are open to players and administrators. These application forms are available through the Munster Council GAA in October. Please contact them directly.

Application Forms are available at: https://uccsport.submit. com//show/36

The closing date for receipt of completed applications is: 4th September 2020
