With brand new dressing rooms, a state-of-the-art fitness centre and gym, a referee’s room, a training pitch, and a new walking track, locals are keen to show off their new facilities.

Kilcummin GAA Club are now inviting the public to the official opening of their new facilities on Sunday next (October 24).

It will kick-off at 2.30pm by County Board Chairman Tim Murphy and all are welcome to attend.

"Members and non-members are welcome to come and take a look around and to be a part of this important occasion," PRO for the club, Mike O’Riordan, said.

The upgrading of the club facilitates, which started in 2019, was made possible by generous support of club members and supporters from near and far, as well as funding received from the Munster Council and Sports Capital Grants.

The Executive and the Development Committee of the club have worked hard to bring the project to fruition but it is the countless hours of the dedicated and committed volunteers that ensured it became a reality.

"It could not have happened without this collective effort. The new facilities are a huge source of pride for the club and local community and the official opening is an event to celebrate this huge community project."

Club officers will be available to chat to anyone interested in memberships of the fitness centre or walking track and club merchandise will be available to purchase on the day. Light refreshments will be served.

"A Céad Míle Fáilte is extended to all," he said.
