Old racecourse to become new Munster home

THE old racecourse on the south side of Limerick city is favourite to become the home of rugby in Munster.

Consultants ARUP are concluding a study on behalf of the IRFU to identify the most suitable venue to replace Thomond Park.

The racecourse has a lot going for it - excellent location within 10 minutes walk of the city centre, easy access from most other parts of Munster, plus approximately 102 acres of land.
