Purpose of SINI
SINI was established in 2002 to help build a world leading sport system for Northern Ireland.
The Sports Institute for Northern Ireland is a partnership between Sport Northern Ireland and the University of Ulster and is based on the Jordanstown campus of the University of Ulster.
SINI works together with athletes, coaches and governing bodies to enable local athletes to compete on a world stage.
A huge amount of work goes on behind the scenes for an elite athlete and SINI is part of that background team. SINI provides a range of services to athletes to enable them to develop their skills and deliver consistent winning performances.
How does SINI work?
