Do sporting organisations pay tax?

What sort of organisations?

I know that most eircom League clubs are incorporated as limited companies and are liable for various taxes for example.
 
Thanks Clubman!

I (..or more accurately my partner) was wondering whether the FAI pays tax or if Limerick County GAA board pays tax?

This link from the FAI website might be of interest:

Relief from Income Tax and Corporation Tax

Note the bit about there being no general exemption from tax for sporting bodies. But specific bodies may meet the relevant criteria for exemption from certain taxes. You'd need to find out more about the specific organisations in question. I suspect that the FAI do pay taxes such as VAT, corporation tax and obviously employer PRSI etc.
 
I suspect that somebody may be wondering about the potential tax implications of a donation to a sporting body from a philanthropic entrepreneur for example? ;)
