Leitrim stadium redevelopment to finish

The development of a major 18,000-seater GAA stadium in Leitrim will be finished today.

The revamp of Páirc Sean MacDiarmada in Carrick-on-Shannon replaced the old dressing rooms and media area with a new structure giving an extra 3,000 seats for spectators.

The total number of seats in the ground now stands at 6,000.

The stand will be one of the most modern in Ireland and will have state-of-the-art facilities for players, spectators and members of the media.

It will have the most modern communications facilities of any GAA stadium in Ireland.
