Works Commence!

In an effort to move our ambitious plans forward, Edenderry GAA have commenced construction of two sand based grass pitches on our new lands. This is the first step in an ambitious master plan.

Following a competitive tendering process under the supervision of our Turf Consultant Mr. Richard Hayden of Sportsturf Solutions, local contractor Emerald Pitch Developments was appointed Main Contractor for the project.

In an effort to have the pitches ready for 2017 we have moved forward with this element of works by way of a Section 5 Declaration from Offaly Co. Co. The earthworks and grass seeding are deemed exempted development and can commence prior to the lodgement of a planning application for the more permanent structure that will follow in the coming weeks.

The works are expected to continue until Sept/Oct and are very dependent on weather. We will provide constant updates here so check back regularly.
