Shameless self promotion time ladies and gents!

Munster: Escape from Pool of Death
Munster: HEC Champions 2007/2008

indoor pitch,great gym,running track,outdoor all weather
How they fund all that? Fair play to them. Was it a community thing or
solely rugby . Maybe they had the guarantee of Munster usiing it if it
was developped. Any pics of it?

The name of the Architect who designed the complex is Paul O'Connell [img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img]
Amazing what the guys get up once training is over for the day.
Mallow GAA
It was built by a local property developer John Barry of CastleLands
A local made good. Done alot for local community in fairness..
Suprised the GAA didnt feel the need to hold a congress to decide to allow Munster to train there because of the way it will destroy the GAAs history and tradtion ......[img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img][img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img][img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img].....[img]smileys/lol.gif[/img][img]smileys/lol.gif[/img][img]smileys/lol.gif[/img]......

They must have used John "The Bull" Hayes to flatten the ground for the foundation. ........[img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img][img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img][img]smileys/biggrin.gif[/img].........Originally Posted by Expat

Rugby clubs using GAA facilities and vice versa happens quite a lot at grassroots level,i suppose this is only being highlighted because it's a high profile squad using a new facility.
Dont no about the mallow thing,but their going to be training in charleville RFC grounds aswell,they checked it out last week.Asked last year but were refused because charleville's 2nd pitch still was'nt ready.Kidney was back there last week to have a look,they already use the St.Joesphs school in charleville,the indoor+all weather facilities ment to be top notch,all funded by Jp mcmanusso it can cover all things...
