Bluescope was approached by Limerick Sports Partnership to discuss the development of a dedicated online booking platform for their programmes and events. Bookings had previously been taken through their main website, but the team wanted a purpose-built system that could manage the full booking journey – from free community days to paid courses – on their own platform. Unlike a standard website build, this was a fully custom platform, designed and developed by Bluescope from the ground up.
The aim of Limerick Sports Partnership is “Getting Limerick Active” – acting as a vital link between the needs of local people, the work of sports organisations and national and state agencies, and increasing participation in sport across Limerick.
We worked alongside the team at Limerick Sports to shape the platform around how they actually run their programmes. Visitors can browse and search all upcoming events, filter by category or venue, view locations on an interactive map, and book and pay securely without ever leaving the site – with popular digital wallets supported at checkout and no third-party ticketing fees. Tickets are delivered instantly by email, each with its own unique scannable code.
Behind the scenes, the Limerick Sports team has a full management dashboard where they can create events, manage capacity in real time, issue discount codes, build custom booking forms to gather exactly the information each programme needs, and report on bookings and revenue at a glance. Upcoming events published on the platform also appear automatically on the main Limerick Sports Partnership website, so both sites stay in step without any double entry. Existing events were migrated across from the previous system as part of the build.
Best practice SEO methods were put in place throughout this website. The new website launched in July 2026.
