Welcome to the website of the Sports Coalition. The Coalition is an all-Ireland organisation comprised of representative associations for Irish sports shooting, angling, and other countryside interests. Its objectives are to defend and represent the interests of resident sports shooting, angling and other countryside activity enthusiasts. Please use the website as a tool to help with knowledge and up to date information to assist you in briefing and lobbying your local politicians and public representatives on topical issues affecting our collective activities. We hope, with your help, to inform those who will eventually be called upon to make decisions affecting our interests.
