Let us know what's on your mindNancy Chillingworth reveals the extraordinary journey of Team Ireland to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina. As Chef de Mission, she's orchestrating a team of up to eight athletes competing across seven winter disciplines - despite Ireland having neither mountains nor snow to train on.The podcast takes us behind the scenes of Olympic preparation, exploring how Irish winter athletes train globally from Korea to Canada while still maintaining a unified team culture. Nancy shares fascinating insights into the logistical challenges of an Olympics spread across northern Italy's Alpine region, and how Team Ireland is tackling them through innovative international collaboration with Denmark and Iceland.We discover athletes like cross-country skier Thomas Maloney Westgard, who achieved an impressive 14th place in Beijing despite battling COVID, and learn how short track skaters and alpine specialists represent Ireland on the world stage. Nancy's passion for building team identity shines through as she explains her philosophy: "Success breeds success if you feel invested in it."The conversation explores how permanent ice facilities in Ireland could transform winter sports participation, with young athletes already showing impressive potential through youth competitions. Nancy shares personal insights about her journey in Olympic sport, revealing what drives her commitment to Irish athletes competing in unlikely disciplines.Whether you're a winter sports enthusiast or simply curious about Olympic preparation, this conversation offers a fascinating glimpse into how a nation without traditional winter sports infrastructure can still compete at the highest level through determination, creativity, and international cooperation.

2024 has been a remarkable year for the Irish CTF, Capture the Flag, team, and doubly so for team Captain Cillian Collins. Fresh from leading the team to their highest ever finish in ENISA's European Cybersecurity Challenge, Collins became the first Irish player selected for Team Europe and was a leading figure in that team as they won the International Cybersecurity Challenge CTF this week in Santiago, Chile. The win was Team Europe's third in a row, facing challenges from teams representing Asia, Oceania, USA, Africa, Latin America and Canada, across two days of challenges. The team became the first to win each individual day of competition as well as the overall prize. The win came less than three weeks after Collins captained the Irish team to their highest finish of 16th at the European Cybersecurity Challenge in Turin, Italy, where the Irish competed against 31 teams from Europe plus six guest countries including the US, Singapore, Canada and Costa Rica. 16th place was a jump of nine places in 2023, by a team run by volunteers and one one of the smallest budgets in the competition, and represents huge progress by the team under manager Mark Lane and head coaches Emmet Leahy and Daniel Cahill, themselves both former Team Ireland captains. It's also been a remarkable personal journey for Collins who only started playing CTFs in 2021, "I was first introduced to CTFs when qualifying for the Irish team competing at ECSC Prague in 2021. After this I competed at ZeroDays CTF in Dublin where I won the Colleges category with my team in both 2022 and 2023," said Collins. "I've been involved in the Irish team ever since and was nominated by Mark Lane for Team Europe this year. After an intense selection process I was chosen to compete in Chile at the ICC where we competed against teams from North America, Asia, Africa, Oceania and Latin America - finishing in 1st place!". The improvement in the team has been marked this year. When asked what's behind the advances Collins explained that the knowledge sharing from more experienced players has helped accelerate the learning of newer players "We now have former players such as Daniel Cahill and Emmet Leahy who are team coaches and share what they have learned from past competitions." "Mark Lane has been instrumental in organising the team and putting together regular bootcamps at TU Dublin campus where the team have worked together in preparation for these competitions. And that hard work has paid off. It has been incredibly rewarding to see Ireland so high on the leaderboard! We had the largest improvement of any ECSC team this year and it is a testament to the hard work and dedication of players and coaches." Team manager Mark Lane was glowing in his praise of his team captain "Cillian has come on an incredible distance in the three years since he joined the team. His drive and desire to learn have been great to watch, and it's so rewarding to see his continued development as a player and as captain. I'd no hesitation nominating him to Team Europe and I wasn't surprised to see him becoming the first Irish player to be chosen. "He still has so much potential, and I could see him as a future captain of the European team. His engagement in the training with Team Europe has also been hugely beneficial to the Irish team as Cillian brings all that learning and experience back to our team as a coach," said Lane. Collins also speaks very highly of his experiences with Team Europe "It is a great honour to be able to play alongside such talented people. I learned a huge amount from being a part of the team and feel motivated to continue learning. The ICC this year was very competitive with some extremely strong players on the other teams so we were very pleased to come out on top." It's clear from both Collins and Lane that there is so much potential in the Irish CTF scene, and the future is bright, once the support is in place. Collins said "I think the CTF scene continues to grow and ther...
The cream of Ireland's young cyber-defenders head to Turin, Italy next month to compete against Europe's elite hackers and cybersecurity in an annual pan-European competition run by ENISA (the EU's cybersecurity body), The European Cyber Security Challenge (www.ecsc.eu) This flagship event has been running since 2016, when Team Ireland were one of ten countries competing. The event has grown every year since then and this year will feature teams of ten from 39 European countries, plus 7 guest countries from outside Europe. European Cyber Security Challenge Team Ireland consists of ten young people, aged from just 16 up to 25, with six of the team being aged 20 or younger. Selection for the team began back in March with the national cybersecurity competition ZeroDays CTF (www.zerodays.ie). This 'Capture-the-Flag' competition has been running since 2015, and saw 140 teams of four from schools, colleges and companies all over Ireland, converge on Croke Park for the annual competition to be crowned Ireland's champions. Teams compete across a range of cybersecurity domains in fun, novel challenges, including cryptography, coding, problem solving, reverse engineering and team challenges such as VR gaming, relay Mario Kart and lockpicking. Individuals who did well in this competition, and in similar more local events, were invited to try out more challenges at www.cybersecuritychallenge.ie, and eligible participants who show promise there were invited to join a squad of around 30 candidates to receive dedicated training, before a final team of ten was chosen at the end of August. This team of ten will now head to Turin to represent Ireland at the European Cyber Security Challenge, a competition that runs across four days of setup, competition and awards. The final team features players from all corners of the country, from Dublin to Belfast to Cork and Donegal, Wexford, Offaly, Galway, it is a very diverse team with different backgrounds and varying skillsets, all of which makes for a stronger team. Team manager Mark Lane, who lectures in cybersecurity at TU Dublin, where the team also trains, said "We've been competing in this competition since 2016, and it's amazing to see it continue to grow. We're up against some European powerhouses who have massive population bases and resourcing, but we've always managed to punch above our weight. I'm really proud of the hard work the team has put in over the last few months, and I'm confident we will do well and continue to improve, as well have some fun while doing it. This year we've had great support from the National Cyber Security Centre, who have awarded us a grant to continue to build on the work with the team, and from our amazing sponsors Cytidel and ReliaQuest, and without them we wouldn't be able to do what we are doing. CTF's have really taken off in the last few years and are, in my opinion, the best way for people to learn cybersecurity skills. It's a very hands-on, and gamified, way to learn, and the competitive side can really spur people on. It's also great to see these young talents develop their skills over time, and to see a real team spirit develop. Over the last couple of years, we have worked hard to make CTFs more mainstream, and we're seeing more schools, coder dojos and colleges taking part. We'd love to see every school in the country taking part. There's a huge skills gap worldwide, including in Ireland, and these events can highlight and encourage cybersecurity as an interesting, varied, and very well-paid career or college choice." Team Bios Cillian Collins, 22, is the Ireland Team Captain. He's a recent graduate from NUIG. Cillian also recently became the first Irish player to be chosen for Team Europe, which takes part in the pan-continental International Cybersecurity Challenge in Chile at the end of October 2024. Dean Brennan, 25, is the team's vice-Captain. Dean is a researcher with Cyber Skills at MTU Cork, where he is currently in the first year of a Ph...
