Best GAA Pitches in County

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


The gaelic grounds surface is looking better than it has in years, it should really get more credit than what it really does. Newcastle West is puting in a lot of work at the moment so i hear, all weather pitch, flood lights new goal mounds, this pitch has one of the best atmospheres for a championship match there is. killmallock is prob no 2 in limerick after gaelic grounds, great open field with excellent playing surface. A lot of credit has to be given to grounds men all around the county because it is mostly people giving up there free time for excellent surfaces we play on . .

Is that Ballybrown field the co board one??, the opposite side of the road from the old one. Its not a bad pitch, bit soft, cuts up, but it'll probably mature.

Leftback, you should' a gone to specsavers. Ballayagran is an excellent pitch and a credit to the local club. The standard of facilities at some of our Junior clubs is first class and they are reaping the rewards as I believe that overall the Junior hurling is improving all the time and teams like Kilteely, Effin, Staker Wallace and Crecora are to the forefront in this.

Sorry have to agree with left back

Ballyagran pitch has a nice surface but nothing can make up for the fall in the field

And now 3 times county champions have fair bad one too.

Staker Wallace pitch must be considered one of the best pitches now. Na Pairsaigh have a decent pitch as well.

I have to agree that the field in Ballyagran is overated. Very tough playin against that slope , I always felt that it can be worth 2 or 3 points to a team. As for Coolyroe , Ive never seen a field where players get injured so much . Lethal so it is.

Ye should see the work they are doing in Tournafulla at the moment...unreal. Watch this space, its going to be an unreal pitch,mark my words.
