THE new Jim Lynch Community Building was officially opened last Thursday, September 25.
As well as facilitating public events, meetings and functions, the new facility incorporates two new state-of-the-art dressing rooms right beside the existing astroturf (4G) playing pitch which has been a huge success since it was completed in 2019.
The opening event was attended by family, friends and Councillors.
Photographer Brian McDaid was there to capture all the moments from the big event.
