Those of us involved in BERNARD BROGAN sport know it is much much more – be it the 40,000 jobs sport support in Ireland, the €1.9 billion in household spending sport stimulates, the €1 billion sport generates in tourism receipts each year, the 500,000 Irish adults sport inspires to go out and volunteer not to mention the on-going role sport does and can make to public health. I am delighted to take up the challenge of being President of the Federation. I am committed to spreading the message of the true value of sport to Ireland and ensuring it is recognised. Set out in the pages that follow are details of the wide and diverse contribution the Federation’s members have made to Irish life over the last 12 months. Government investment in Irish Sport enables much of this work. The reality is however that funding is not enough; other forms of support are also required to allow this work to continue and to be built on. Some of the policy measures we I have been lucky enough to have been involved in sport all my life.

The aim for Irish and social life of Ireland. Sport must be to improve the lives of all who come in contact with sport and to do our best to afford more opportunities to those not yet partaking. Sport has I have watched from afar how in recent years the Federation of Irish Sport has not improved my life. I know that it can have a positive impact on the lives of all of just united Irish Sport under one umbrella but has also made significant strides in Ireland’s people. It will however need all of those involved in sport – Government, raising awareness of the multiple dividends sport provides to both the economic and Business as well as Sport itself to work together to make that goal a reality. Let’s social life of the country. I now look forward to playing a part. hope 2015 will see some of these important developments get underway. I am delighted that the Government have not made any further reductions in funding Is mise le meas, for sport in 2015 and pleased to have played a part in that campaign. However, I do believe that the full potential of sport to Ireland has not yet being maximised. Bernard Brogan MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO 2014 has also seen a much closer working relationship between the Federation and Fáilte Ireland with a view to encouraging and providing support to Federation SARAH O’CONNOR members regarding the hosting of international sports conferences and events in Ireland. The International Skating Union held their bi-annual Congress in Dublin early this year generating a return of over €1 million in the process. The FAI successfully secured matches from the Euro 2020 Championships for Dublin whilst, a number of other bids including one for the IPC European Swimming Championships 2018 are underway. Developments at the National Sports Campus have continued apace with the Community Pitches being officially opened in January, both the GAA & the FAI breaking ground on their developments, a number of high performance swimmers now being accommodated on site with boxers hopefully to follow in 2015. Work has also commenced on an extension to the Irish Institute of Sport as well as a shared changing room/conference facility. It is intended that work on the long awaited National Indoor Training Centre to include a multi-sport hall, indoor Irish Sport has flourished in final straight of 2014.

American football gained fame as the people wanted to detach themselves from the English influence. The father of this sport Walter Camp altered the shape and size of the ball to an oval-shaped ball called ovoid ball and drawn up some unique set of rules. Objective American Football is played on a four sided ground with goalposts at each end. The two opposing teams are named as the Offense and the Defense, The offensive team with control of the ovoid ball, tries to go ahead down the field by running and passing the ball, while the defensive team without control of the ball, targets to stop the offensive team’s advance and tries to take control of the ball for themselves. The main objective of the sport is scoring maximum number of goals by moving forward with the ball into the opposite team's end line for a touchdown or kicking the ball through the challenger's goalposts which is counted as a goal and the team gets points for the goal. The team with the most points at the end of a game wins.
