PICTURES | Red letter day for Longford rugby club as new 4G pitch is officially opened

Use the Arrows < > above to go through the gallery

The official opening and dedication of Longford RFC's new 4G pitch took place on Friday afternoon last with Longford County Council Cathaoirleach Turlough McGovern cutting the tape in front of a crowd of club members, family, and friends. The weather did not dampen the spirits and the guests enjoyed a number of speeches over lunch afterwards.

The ceremony was preceded by the inaugural schools tournament which is hoped to be held every year to round off the rugby activities of local schools. We hope you enjoy this gallery of photos from the opening captured by Shelley Corcoran and don't forget to tag and share with your friends!
