Cois Sionna Desmond Credit Union announces sponsorship of the Desmond Ladies Football League

Cois Sionna Desmond Credit Union has announced a new sponsorship partnership with the Desmond Ladies Football League, building on its recent support of the Desmond Football League.

This latest sponsorship reflects the Credit Union’s ongoing commitment to grassroots sport, community wellbeing, and creating opportunities for players of all ages across West Limerick and the wider area.

The Desmond Ladies Football League continues to play a vital role in developing women’s football in the region, providing competitive and inclusive pathways for young players and adults alike.

Through the dedication of volunteers, coaches, and club officers, the league has grown steadily in recent years, offering not only opportunities for sporting achievement but also a strong sense of belonging and community connection.

Speaking about the sponsorship, Cois Sionna Desmond Credit Union CEO Declan Benson said:

“At Cois Sionna Desmond Credit Union, we believe that strong communities are built through shared effort, opportunity, and inclusion.

“Having recently partnered with the Men’s Desmond Football League, we are delighted to now extend our support to the Desmond Ladies Football League.

“Women’s football continues to go from strength to strength, and this sponsorship is our way of recognising the dedication of players, volunteers, and families who give so much of their time to the game.

“We’re proud to play a small part in supporting the next generation of footballers in our communities.”

The partnership will provide valuable support to the league as it continues to invest in player development, matchday organisation, and the overall promotion of women’s football locally.

Beyond the practical benefits, the sponsorship also sends a positive message about equality in sport and the importance of recognising and supporting the women’s game alongside the men’s.

Desmond Ladies Football League Chairperson Siobhan O’Gorman welcomed the announcement, highlighting the impact of community partnerships on the league’s future.

“We are absolutely delighted to have the support of Cois Sionna Desmond Credit Union. Sponsorships like this are crucial for the continued growth of our league and for creating positive experiences for our players, from grassroots right through to senior level.

“It’s particularly encouraging to see a local organisation backing both the men’s and women’s leagues. That kind of commitment shows a genuine belief in community sport and in giving support to everyone who pulls on a jersey each week.

”This new partnership reinforces Cois Sionna Desmond Credit Union’s role as a proud supporter of local initiatives, helping to strengthen community ties and ensuring that football — for women and men alike — continues to thrive.

“We believe that strong communities are built through shared effort”
