Over €9m granted for new indoor athletics facility at CIT

Facilities may only be one small step towards sporting success, but many in athletics are in celebration mode after various projects took a giant leap towards becoming reality.

Chief among them is a new indoor athletics facility at Cork Institute of Technology which, after a joint application with Athletics Ireland, was awarded €9.22m under the Large Scale Sport Infrastructure Fund (LSSIF). The outdoor track at CIT will also be resurfaced.
