A Galway man is introducing a concept that brings networking through sport back into the limelight.
The Sporting Club has been very successful in the UK, allowing businesses to meet in the company of some of the biggest names in sport, and this Autumn will see the first events of its kind as Ronan O'Gara, Johnny Sexton and Bernard Jackman will be the special guests.
Further events featuring Dublin All-Ireland winner Paddy Andrews and former Republic of Ireland manager Martin O'Neill are also being held this year with plans for Galway, Cork and Limerick already at the early stage.
The man behind The Sporting Club Ireland is Mark Brandon who has taken on the franchise for Ireland and he spoke to John Mulligan on Sunday Sport.
