Welcome to the sport pages of the National University of Ireland, Maynoooth. The aim of this department is to provide as many students and staff as possible the opportunity to partake in sports and physical recreation.
The formative years spend at university should encompass a lot more than study and course-work. Research and practical knowledge vouches that sport enables all of us to work and play better. For students, the lifestyle habits adopted during the college years are likely to be those for life. School-leavers just starting college have an obvious advantage and can anticipate quick gains through physical training which should stand to them for the rest of their years.
Student-run clubs form the back-bone of the sports and recreation programme at the NUI, Maynooth. The Sports Office organises a range of fitness classes for those who are unable to commit themselves fully to a club. With thirty-two active university clubs, an exceptional and time-honored structure is in place for student sport.
