The #LoveYourClub campaign offers a unique opportunity for sports teams to win an exclusive jersey sponsorship worth €5,000. Two lucky teams, comprising one adult male and one adult female team, will have the chance to elevate their club's visibility and support through this sponsorship.

To enter the competition, teams are invited to showcase their love for their club by recording a video of themselves and/or their club mates explaining why they deserve to win the coveted sponsorship. The videos should highlight the team's dedication, spirit, and commitment to their sport and community. Once recorded, participants simply need to share their videos on social media platforms using the hashtag #LoveYourClub.

Former Waterford Senior Hurler John Mullane expressed his enthusiasm for the campaign, stating, "Grassroots sports clubs play a vital role in nurturing talent and fostering a sense of community. I am delighted to be part of this initiative that celebrates the dedication and passion of local athletes. I encourage teams to embrace this opportunity and share their stories of why they love their club."

Entries will be evaluated based on creativity, sincerity, and the impact of the team's message. The winning teams will be selected by a panel of judges, and announced the winner will be announced on Friday 29th March 2024. 

"We believe in the power of sports to unite communities and inspire individuals," said Tim Lucey, CEO at Greyhound Racing Ireland. "Through the #LoveYourClub campaign, we aim to shine a spotlight on grassroots sports clubs and support their efforts in nurturing talent and fostering a love for sports."

The competition is open to sports clubs of all levels and disciplines. Whether it's Gaelic football, soccer, hurling, rugby, or any other sport that features a minimum of 5 players, all teams are encouraged to participate and share their stories.
