Never standing still, Tyrone are preparing to kick on again

Never standing still, Tyrone are preparing to kick on again

Last Saturday, they opened the doors of their Garvaghey Centre for a coaching clinic by one of the world’s premier skills coaches. As a measure of their generosity as well as their ambition, the invite extended to everyone from everywhere, but was ultimately taken up almost exclusively by coaches from within their own province, and predominantly from within their own county.

The facility is three years old now, but looks as immaculate and as clean as it did upon its opening. With five grass pitches, two 3G pitches and a main building designed in the shape of a curved Celtic T, it stands as both a shrine to the past and a statement about the future.
