Recent storms have wreaked havoc across Ireland, with significant destruction noted in several regions. The Connacht GAA Air Dome in Co Mayo was severely damaged, having only recently opened at a cost of €3.1 million. This facility was a key resource for GAA teams. Similarly, in Dublin, the indoor ice rink in Blanchardstown was completely destroyed by the winds, disrupting the last days of the ice-skating season. Both sites will undergo repairs, highlighting the impact of extreme weather on community facilities.
There was a similar scene in Dublin's Blanchardstown, where the ice rink operated by Cool Running Events was blown down by high winds.
The facility based at Connacht GAA's Centre of Excellence in Bekan near Ballyhaunis was opened in January 2022 and built at a cost of €3.1m.
