Blackrock RFC and Cuala to share grounds

A landmark ground-sharing deal between Blackrock College RFC and Cuala GAA club could be the start of a new trend according to one of the people behind the deal.

The executives of both clubs signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to develop a multi-sport facility at the rugby club’s Stradbrook grounds. For Cuala secretary Declan Murray, it could be the start of a new era of cooperation between sporting bodies in urban areas.

“Yeah I think it could be the start of a trend,” he said last night.
