On the day we were responsible for running a number of sporting activities as part of the official opening. As the President entered the new facility, Comeragh CC, Sportif CC and Waterford AC were lined up to greet him on his arrival. As he was drove around the facility, he was accompanied by the Comeragh and Sportif Cycling Clubs and closely followed by Waterford Athletics Club. As he viewed the facility he had the chance to see girls from the Wildcats Basketball Club demonstrate how the new trim trails will be used and see Southend United training in the Regional Sports Centre. When he arrived on the main viewing area, he was greeted by Waterford City Childcare Committee demonstrating Buntús Start games, Waterford AC showcasing their field athletic games, Orienteering Ireland running orienteering sessions for girls from the Wildcats Basketball Club and Waterford City Rugby Club who generously gave up their time to run touch rugby sessions.
As the President made his speech, all the clubs ensured the park was a hive of activity. A huge thanks to all clubs who kindly gave up their time to come along to the opening of the Park, it was a great day for everyone in Waterford.
