Four of 16 greyhound tracks to close after review of industry's future

Four of Ireland's sixteen licenced greyhound tracks are set to close after an independent review of the future of the greyhound racing industry.

The review recommended the closure of Youghal, Enniscorthy, Lifford and Longford tracks. It also said three further closures may be required by 2022 as the sport faces increasing challenges in supporting tracks and attracting audiences.
