Leeside set to offer training outlet for Olympic athletes
“The American athletics team coming to the Cork City Sports have asked us to look out for accommodation where they could base themselves over the next few years in the lead-up to London,” said Tony O’Connell, Cork City Sports PRO yesterday.
“We are talking to other bodies, including Cork City Council, about how we can encourage athletes to take up residence here in the lead-up to the Games. We have the facilities here in Cork – in CIT, the Mardyke and so on – to accommodate them.”
