A new era in transplant and dialysis sport in Ireland

The IKA delivered a successful sports programme (Transplant Team Ireland) for over 30 years. Open to transplant recipients and people on dialysis of all ages, the programme attracted people who were newly diagnosed and those who have been living with organ failure for many years.

In 2024, the Irish Kidney Association worked with members of Transplant Team Ireland to establish a new, independent organisation (Transplant Sport Ireland) to build on the legacy and continue delivering an inclusive programme of sports.

The Irish Kidney Association has passed on the baton of transplant and dialysis sport in Ireland to Transplant Sport Ireland. Therefore, if you would like to find out more or get involved, please contact them via their website: www.transplantsportireland.ie.
