FAI launch plans for Munster Football Centre of Excellence

The complex will provide a training base for Cork City FC and will also provide playing and training facilities for underage teams in Munster.

The FAI, Cork County Council and FORAS, the trust that operates Cork City FC, have launched the new Munster Football Centre of Excellence, which has secured planning go-ahead.

It will finally give a Cork League of Ireland club a permanent home, said Pat Lyons, Chairman of Cork City FC, at the launch of the project.
