Founded by Ray McManus, Sportsfile was launched purely on passion - an attribute that continues to mark the company out as the leader in its field. Since those heady days of the early 1980s, Ray McManus has assembled and continues to lead a crack team of award winning photo journalists noted for their enthusiasm and consummate professionalism.

Today, Sportsfile photo journalists can be seen working at sports events the length and breadth of the country as well as in far away places where Olympics, GAA International Rules events, European and World Cup Soccer, Rugby World Cup, International Golf, Horse Racing and a host of other international sports with an Irish angle take place.

Ray and his team have also kept pace with the rapidly sweeping technological advances happening in both digital photography and online communications and the sportsfile.com website is a shining example of this dedicated team-work.

The team at Sportsfile know their sports well and every week combine to deliver the best images for national, international and provincial media - a winning team in every respect.

Sportsfile, Ireland's leading sports photography agency, is based in Dublin city.
