Following a significant governance review over the last three years a new Board was elected by the membership at Congress in April 2025. The Board has recently finalised further appointments in collaboration with the Nominations Committee. We note that there is one more Cooptee to be appointed based on any skill deficiencies that the current group may have, this final appointment will be confirmed in the coming weeks.

The newly formed Board has reduced in size from 16 to 12 members and is composed of a diverse skillset of individuals committed to leading Athletics Ireland forward and delivering our Strategic Plan 2025 to 2028.

President Brid Golden notes, “It is an exciting time for our sport, and we are very conscious that we require individuals of the highest calibre and skillset to lead athletics to future success. Our vision to inspire the nation to be active, healthy and to perform through athletics is challenging but I am very proud to lead this group of fantastic people for the next two years to achieve this outcome.”
