We established a strong education partner link with The Irish Rugby Union Players Association (IRUPA) in 2009. Following on from this partnership we are working on a number of player education initiatives in conjunction with IRUPA.

Setanta College established links with the Irish Amateur Weightlifting Association in 2007.

Since 2008 we have developed a strong working relationship with the world famous Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) based in California, USA. Setanta College was proud to provide a Level 1 pre-reading course for the TPI. We are looking forward to developing our Golf S&C courses over the coming year in conjunction with the TPI.
