Broadford's New Stand Takes Shape

11/2/2016

 
Picture
​In just a few weeks, Broadford Hurling Club’s new stand has really started to take shape.  The all-important foundations were set deep in to the ground and the concrete walls of the stand are complete.  This is all thanks to the fundraising of the club’s members, friends and wider community.

The site might seem quiet for the next few weeks but that’s not because work has stopped.  At this time the focus is off-site, getting the steelwork for the roof and its supporting structure ready.  This will rise about eight feet from the top of the concrete walls to give plenty of headroom  and visibility for the spectators.

The space between the top of the concrete wall and the roof will be filled with glass to provide shelter from the wind and rain. (Not that that will be necessary this year. Were in for a scorcher!)

Picture
The picture above shows the open space inside the stand that needs to be filled and stepped down from the back to front to provide the terrace for the rows of seats.

The gap in the back wall is where the staircase will rise behind the stand from the ground and up to the back of the seating area.  Spectators will access the stand from this staircase and then walk down though the seating area as far as the front row.

Picture
As well as entering the stand from behind, visitors will also be able to access the clubhouse directly.  There will be full access to the clubhouse for wheelchairs and for those who are less mobile.

Likewise, there will also be access to the stand from the front for those that cannot use the stairs for the same reasons.​
Picture
​The stand is going to make a big difference for everyone and afford everyone a fine view of Broadford hurling and camogie matches for years to come.
Picture
Hopefully these few pictures have helped to provide some insights in to how your kind donations are helping to deliver this fantastic development for the club.

If you have not yet sponsored a seat, but think that this is something you would like to do, then please contact Pat Donnellan on 087 350 6359 or email [email protected] for further information.

Thank you!
