The FAI Board of Management today (March 5) confirmed the prize fund allocation for the 2010 Airtricity League season, with clubs set to compete for a prize fund of €911,000. Despite a 25% reduction in budgeted wage costs at clubs, this year’s prize fund will maintain much of the increase that was made in 2009, as well as remaining 11% higher than in 2008 and 128% higher than before the FAI took over the management of the Airtricity League.
Prize money in the Airtricity League Premier Division will stand at €700,000 in 2010, while €161,000 will be allocated to Airtricity League First Division clubs. An additional €50,000 in live television money brings the total fund to €911,000.
This total does not include additional monies granted to clubs for marketing and community initiatives.
