Respect matters most in the moment.

When the pressure is on, how we speak, react, and respond can make all the difference. From participants and coaches to parents, supporters and officials, everyone has a role to play in keeping sport respectful.

A calm conversation, a considered reaction and a respectful response can help create a better experience for everyone.

Every sport. Every person. Every time.

We are delighted to celebrate the launch of Dungarvan Greenway parkrun, which held its inaugural event on Saturday, 17 October, welcoming a new weekly opportunity for people of all ages and abilities to get active in the local community.

Taking place every Saturday morning, Dungarvan Greenway parkrun offers a free, timed 5km event along the beautiful Waterford Greenway, starting from Railway Cottage in Dungarvan. Whether you choose to walk, jog, run or volunteer, everyone is welcome, with no pressure to race or finish within a particular time.

We would like to thank all those who helped bring the event to life, including Dale and the wider parkrun team, the VHI, the HSE, the Railway Cottage, and Pascal and the dedicated team of local volunteers. Their support and commitment have helped establish an exciting new addition to the local physical activity calendar.

Volunteers are essential to the success of parkrun, and anyone interested in getting involved is encouraged to lend a hand. No running experience is required, and even an occasional Saturday morning can make a real difference.

Dungarvan Greenway parkrun takes place every Saturday morning, starting from the Railway Cottage, Dungarvan. To take part, register for free on the parkrun Ireland website, select Dungarvan Greenway as your event, and download or print your personal barcode. Bring your barcode each week to receive your official time.

For further information or to volunteer, please contact Thomas at Waterford Sports Partnership on 086 206 1083.

We were delighted to welcome Uniek Sporten Brabant from the Netherlands to Waterford yesterday as part of an Erasmus visit, in partnership with Waterford City & County Council and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown Sports Partnership.

With inclusion at the heart of the visit, we took our visitors on a journey along the beautiful Copper Coast to showcase how local communities are creating opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to get active, connect and enjoy the outdoors.
🌿 Anne Valley Walk, Dunhill – Our first stop was the beautiful, fully accessible Anne Valley Walk, where visitors met service users and experienced the trail, alongside a wonderful nature therapy session with Nature Therapy Ireland.
🏐 Dunhill GAA Club – We explored the power of volunteerism in rural communities and how local clubs can champion inclusion. We also showcased the club’s new walkway and lighting, helping to create a more accessible and welcoming environment for everyone.
🌳 Copper Coast Scouts Outdoor Adventure Hub – Our final stop was a fantastic opportunity to meet Ray from Active Connections and discover how adapted equipment and inclusive approaches can open up outdoor adventure to people of all ages and abilities.
A huge thank you to the Anne Valley Committee, Dunhill GAA Club, Copper Coast Scouts, Active Connections and Nature Therapy Ireland for their warm welcome and for helping make this visit such a success.
👏 A brilliant example of what can be achieved when communities and organisations work together to make inclusion a reality!
