Pitches & Training Area Upgrading

33 metric tonne of sand was delivered earlier this morning from Wexford, for spreading today, throughout our two main pitches & training areas to improve the playing surface and more importantly to ensure season playing longevity annually. We expect to have another load delivered in the next 2 weeks. Each year we loose 2-3 months playing time due to the effect the weather has on our grounds prohibiting home games been played (Which of course in many cases means our teams may have to travel away to play these fixtures) and although this project will take 2/3 years to see it's full effectiveness it has to start sometime. This is another huge investment for the Club along with flood lighting & overall maintainance recently in our facilities.
