Episode Details

Cork County Council is demanding a second national sports campus to level the playing field for southern Ireland, arguing that as the region’s largest and most economically vital area, it deserves world-class facilities that currently only Dublin enjoys. With athletes forced to travel long distances and communities lacking basic recreational infrastructure, the proposed campus would serve counties from Kerry to Waterford, boosting health, tourism, and employment. As Cork anticipates a 100,000-person population surge by 2024, the council is rallying local leaders and the national government to prioritize this investment — aiming for a feasibility study and a future national sports infrastructure plan that includes the south.
