WATCH: John Delaney opened the new Leeds

“The previous all-weather pitch had been in place for over 15 years and was well past its best before date,” said Fogarty. “With this new state-of-the-art training facility we can now cater for all of our schoolboys, youths and Munster Senior League players.

"Probably the biggest benefactors of this fantastic new pitch is our academy teams. Our academy is currently going from strength to strength and its numbers are starting to return again to what they were 10 years ago. Leeds AFC are proud of its past of being one of the most successful clubs in schoolboy history but are now looking to build to the future.”

"The joy of having this facility the club no longer needs to hire other facilities and can invest in other areas such as training equipment and coaching courses so that it benefits the club as a whole."
