Let’s Talk Periods – Club Development

In collaboration with Sport Ireland we are working on a very important and exciting project on Periods. The aim is to make clubs and coaches more aware of periods and the menstrual cycle as well as making clubs a supportive environment for teenage girls.

We are looking for 10 clubs to pilot a pack of resources to support teenage girls in their clubs when it comes to talking about periods.

The resources are being developed ‘by girls for girls’ and we are looking for clubs to take part in this pilot from October 2024.

The resource pack will include educational posters for your club house or track area, info posters for toilets or club noticeboards and a worksheet to make your club period supportive for the girls.

Athletics Ireland are the first National Governing Body working on this project and we have been asked to trial the resources and give feedback on them.

To apply for the opportunity to take part please fill in the application form via the link below. You should notice board where the resources can be displayed.

There will also be a zoom call with all the clubs prior to the resources being sent out to answer any questions and talk through the pack.

Any questions please contact Women in Sport Lead- Anna Grealish annagrealish@athleticsireland.ie
