Killarney Valley AC to refurbish attack following success

The ongoing national and international success of Killarney Valley Athletic Club members has prompted club officials to re-invest in the club's state-of-the-art facility on New Road.

Developed to provide a top-class training ground for local talent, the Killarney Valley AC arena has become a vital hub for Kerry athletics.
Following a period of national and international success the club is now preparing for its future by upgrading to its running track.
Club official and coach Jer Griffin said:
"What is very satisfying is that the hard work of the athletes, the coaching team and the hard working committee is reaping rewards. This summer the track at the Killarney Valley AC arena it is set for a refurbishment at a significant cost to the club. It is felt it is a great investment in the community as Killarney Valley AC now has national senior women's and men's teams in the final on August 9 and that is a definite positive reflection on the visionaries."
The announcement follows another standout performance at the AAI National Track and Field Championships last weekend, where the club secured three more medals.
