For any Club considering a new lighting scheme, or upgrading an existing scheme, possibly to LED Floodlights, the Governments Sports Capital Grant scheme should be considered. VeeLite can help by providing a Quote for new LED lighting which can be used as the basis for a Grant submission. In 2019, a total of €37m was allocated to 994 Sports Projects across the Republic. The largest portion – €30m – went to GAA Clubs, Multi-sport, Soccer, Golf, Tennis and Rugby. VeeLite has supplied many of these Projects with lighting equipment, typically with Sports Pitch Floodlights, Tennis Court floodlights, Walking Track Lighting, Hurling Wall Lighting, etc, as well as general external lighting for Roadways and Car parks. In addition, we also supply Lighting for Internal Sports Arenas as shown below.
