Student Sport Ireland

Student Sport Ireland (SSI), formerly the Colleges and Universities Sports Association of Ireland (CUSAI), is a non-governmental organisation, recognised as the governing body for sport in third-level education in Ireland, working with educational institutions and the governing bodies of specific sports.

CUSAI was originally formed in 2005 following the merger of the Irish Student Sports Association and the Council of University Sports Administrators in Ireland. It was renamed in 2013.

The organisation receives some financial support from Sport Ireland. As of 2025, SSI reportedly had three full-time employees based in Sport HQ at the National Sports Campus.

The organisation coordinates participation in international programmes, including the multi sport FISU World University Games (or Universiade) and FISU Championships. SSI also assists other sports governing bodies, and third level institutions, to develop competition and recreation programmes.
