The J1000 Programme, supported by the Craig Breen Foundation, is designed to give young drivers their first competitive step into rallying.

Open to 14–17-year-olds, the initiative provides access to affordable, well-structured events, guidance from experienced mentors, and a safe environment to develop driving skill, confidence, and sportsmanship. Built on Craig’s passion for nurturing emerging talent, the J1000 Programme ensures that the next generation of Irish rally drivers have the opportunity, support, and inspiration to follow their dreams behind the wheel.
