Antrim GAA receive a Christmas Bonus

Antrim GAA received a timely boost to the tune of £800,000 towards their development project at Dunsilly.  Sports Minister Carál Ní Chuilín has announced the funding and it will contribute towards construction of changing facilities, car parking and fencing at the venue on the outskirts of Antrim Town.

Antrim GAA is contributing a further £105,000 towards the project, which is due for completion by August 2016.  This is much needed injection into the Antrim GAA scene as currently county teams don't have a training base. 

As well as a venue for county terms to train, and a base for Development squads it will be home to the local St Comghall's GAC.  With it's central local and proximity to the M2 motorway it will be a useful resource for school teams as often they have to travel to Cookstown and Garvaghy for games with the unavailability of a more suitable neutral venue.
