		Ireland has entered some domestic English tournaments since the early 1980s, but becoming an Associate Member of the International Cricket Council in 1993 paved the way for participation in international competition, and indeed the 2005 ICC Trophy was hosted by Ireland.
		Ireland's most famous cyclists are Stephen Roche, who won both the Tour de France and Giro d'Italia in 1987; and Sean Kelly, who won the Vuelta a España in 1988, the sprinter's green jersey in the Tour de France four times, and numerous single-day classics.
		Swim Ireland was established as the new governing body in 1999 and has worked tirelessly and determinedly to restore the credibility of swimming and ensure its safeness as a leisure and competitive sport.

		Swim Ireland had its funding cut by the Irish government during the summer because of "mismanagement" (there was no CEO) and it also had to pay for horrible abuse cases that happened a few years ago - that cost millions.
		As someone who was involved in Irish swimming for 20 years or so (as a swimmer, not organising) I can tell you not to get your hopes up regarding a new organising body.
		In my experience Irish swimming has been beset by petty arguments between officials for many a year, so I'd be surprised if a new body wasn't afflicted by the same thing.
