Three of the walls will be fully closed and suitable as a Ball Wall. Half of the side facing the pitch will be open but with mesh fencing to allow fresh air to circulate. 

The building will be suitable for kinds of indoor games and training and will be a massive asset to our Community.

Catering for all levels from beginners to regular runners, it supports people to get what they want out of their training in a way that makes running enjoyable and fun. Come along and check it out.

Training commenced on Friday 16th July at 7pm, meeting at Ballycumber GAA pitch, there is also a second venue TBA in order not to interfere with GAA training and matches. There will be three nights in total, Monday @ 8pm, Wednesday and Friday @ 7pm. The training programme will suit everyone from beginners to recreational and even elite runners.

All runners when training in Ballycumber GAA Grounds must be members of Ballycumber GAA Club for insurance purposes.
