"The government will put €3m towards the funding of League of Ireland academies in 2026 as part of a new multiannual commitment from the state that will allow the number of full-time staff working in the game to increase."
"Today's budget will confirm that the lobbying for support led by the League of Ireland department within the FAI has been successful, even if they have not secured the full amount requested in the pre-budget submission that was detailed by the Irish Independent last Friday."
Government will allocate €3m in 2026 to fund League of Ireland academies under a new multiannual state commitment. The funding is intended to allow the number of full-time staff working in the game to increase and to strengthen academy operations. Budget measures will confirm that lobbying for support led by the League of Ireland department within the FAI succeeded in securing state backing. The funding falls short of the full amount sought in the pre-budget submission, representing partial rather than complete fulfillment of the academies' requested financial support.
