Jim Finucane, chairperson of the board of Tralee Sports and Leisure Centre, said the possibility that the complex could be partially reopened is being assessed. 

The roof of the centre's main hall, where the Tralee Warriors Super League team play their games, collapsed early on Monday due to an accumulation of snow. There are also two swimming pools, a gym, handball and racquetball courts housed in the centre.
