Women in Sport Week 2026 takes place this March, with International Women’s Day (IWD) on Sunday, March 8th, encapsulating the week.
International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. It is also a moment to recognise progress, challenge inequality, and continue building a more inclusive sporting landscape for everyone.
Women in Sport Week aims to:
Celebrate every woman and girl who plays, coaches, officiates, volunteers, works in, and leads on Women in Sport.
Promote and highlight the ongoing work of Sport Ireland, National Governing Bodies, Local Sports Partnerships, clubs and other stakeholders on Women in Sport.
Showcase programmes and initiatives funded through the Sport Ireland Women in Sport Programme.
