717. To ask the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment if he will be announcing a sports capital grant application scheme this year; if so, when applications will open; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30093/25]

Over a quarter of a billion euro was allocated to 3,048 community sports clubs and facilities in 2024 from the 2023 round of the Community Sport Facilities Fund (CSFF), formerly the Sports Capital and Equipment Programme, representing the largest-ever investment in sports facilities in communities across Ireland.

In line with previous rounds of the programme, a review of the current funding round will be undertaken and that review will inform the timing of the next round of the Community Sport Facilities Fund. However, I would anticipate that the next round should be announced in 2026.
