This clip shows just how important it is to support amateur clubs.

When it comes to building Ireland's next generation of sporting icons, there's nothing quite as influential as Ireland's grassroots sports clubs. So many of Ireland's greatest sporting legends have come from grassroots sports, showing just how important it is that amateur clubs and players get the support they need. That's why Aviva are committed to supporting sport at all levels, through their nationwide sponsorship programmes.   As well as supporting players at International Level, Aviva are also doing their bit to support grassroots sports all around the country, to help our future generation of athletes get the running start they deserve. Portmarnock AFC is one of many clubs that Aviva is supporting through their sponsorship programmes, and it's made a huge difference to female athletes of every age. From launching their first girls' soccer team in 2015 to taking part in Aviva Soccer Sisters, Portmarnock AFC has gone from strength to strength in the last few years when it comes to championing girls and women in sport. Check out the full video below to see how Portmarnock AFC have thrived over the last few years. It takes a supporter like no other. It takes Aviva.
