Proper targets Leevale meeting

With favourable weather forecast, some exciting performances are expected today when the Leevale club promote the first day of a two-day programme of athletics.

Taking place at the Cork IT track, the action begins at 11am on both days.

Speaking at the launch of the event at The River Lee Hotel, meet director Donal Murnane said the club saw a gap in the calendar for a high quality meeting that wasn’t part of the championship scene and what started off as an open sports has grown yearly since its inception.
