GAA to provide cardiac screeningfor teenagers

The GAA is to provide free cardiac screening to teenagers living near Páirc Uí Chaoimh in Cork city as part of an agreement secured over a planned €70m redevelopment of the stadium.

It will also allow local schools play on its all-weather pitches and permit community groups the use of meetings rooms in the complex, once the project is completed.

Cork County GAA Board chairman Bob Ryan confirmed a memorandum of understanding had been signed by the organisation and Ballintemple Area Residents Association.
