LOI and Grinds 360 launch educational partnership

The League of Ireland and education provider Grinds 360 have announced a new partnership that will give EA SPORTS LOI Academy teams over €400,000 worth of student memberships, available free of charge to players on the platform.

Grinds 360 consists of teachers who work in Ireland’s top grinds schools. The service provides students with easy access to the modules and grinds they need, whenever they need them. Offering a range of 19 subjects, the online platform is an ideal way for young footballers to balance the demands of League of Ireland Academy football with their educational commitments.

League of Ireland Academy Programme Manager, Will Clarke, said: “We’re delighted to announce this new partnership with Grinds 360. Education is a crucial part of every player’s journey, both in football and in life, and this program will be a great resource for the players who use the platform.”

Established and operated by qualified teachers, Grinds 360 is an online service designed to provide on-demand educational content to students across Ireland, supporting their secondary school education.

Grinds 360 CEO and Co-Founder, Ronan Murdock, added: “We are delighted to partner with the League of Ireland to support their players and clubs in reaching their full potential, both on and off the pitch. The vision that the League of Ireland has for the future of Irish football is very bright, and we are thrilled to be a part of that.

"Having the League of Ireland on board strengthens our goal of bringing our educational platform to every corner of Ireland. We look forward to helping LOI Academy players manage their busy schedules.”
