Sport History Ireland is a society set up to encourage academic and popular study of the history of sport and sporting organisations in Ireland.



Great event this Sunday @royalmarine for @museumofCP as part of #NationalHeritageWeek organised by @EmmaOToole2 I'll be sharing a stage with the brill Marnie Hay and @SarahAnneBuckle and discussing the history of sport, children and Irish nationalism @SportHisIre #twitterstorians
