‘This is a game-changer. What it does is give athletes something on their doorstep. They don’t have to spend time travelling to Cork, which could be an extra hour or more. Now, it makes it easier for people to decide to commit to athletics'
Bandon AC's new athletics track is the first of its kind in West Cork, and as chairperson Adrian O'Flynn tells us, the destination has been worth the journey.
