The Ireland national korfball team is managed by the Ireland Korfball Association (IKA), representing Ireland in korfball international competitions.

Contents

The team is almost entirely made up from expatriates and those of Irish heritage, mostly from Great Britain and the Benelux, as there is no korfball set up within Ireland.

The squad is an all-Ireland team and uses Ireland's Call as a national anthem. [1]

Super Bowl LV was an American football game played to determine the champion of the National Football League (NFL) for the 2020 season. The National Football Conference (NFC) champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the defending American Football Conference (AFC) and Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs, 31–9. The game was played on February 7, 2021, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, the home stadium of the Buccaneers, marking the first time a team played a Super Bowl in its home stadium. Coincidentally, Super Bowl LV was the first of two consecutive Super Bowls in which the venue was the home stadium of the eventual winners, as Super Bowl LVI was won by the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Due to COVID-19 protocols limiting the stadium's seating capacity to 25,000 fans, it was the least-attended Super Bowl.
