Any organisation interested in applying for a grant under the next round of the Sports Capital Programme should register on OSCAR at (if not already registered). OSCAR is the portal on the Department's website which must be used by organisations to register, to apply for funding (when the Programme is open for applications) and to manage the drawdown of any grants allocated. It should be noted that in order to register on OSCAR a tax registration number from the Revenue Commissioners is required.

Detailed preparations are being made at present for the next round of the Sports Capital Programme and I will launch the 2015 Programme when these are complete. Interested organisations should read the document "Guide to Making an Application" very carefully (this will be made available when the new round of the SCP is launched) and should provide all information and documentation required.
