the centre is being built on the basis of a community centre, with use for indoor soccer, badminton, local ICA, gun clubs, card clubs and hopefully other local clubs and societies etc. as well as our underage and adult teams indoor training both male and female
the site is located adjacent to our GAA field with existing dressing rooms already there being retained.

members of the committee are arguing against the provision of new dressing rooms in the new build.
I'd be in favour of new dressing rooms in a new building. You need 4 dressing rooms nowadays.

what sort of flooring did clubs opt for?

Two grass pitches or 1 grass pitch and a full size 3g pitch?

that'd be ambitious

Seems to be a lot of potential user groups there. What do they currently use for meetings etc? Will you definitely get them on board.  If you are going to have a sports hall you'll need changing rooms for that, but 2 should do you.
Careful now

No outdoor. We will be looking at an indoor facility at some stage.

Two grass. 3G not all they're cracked up to be. They have a 13-15 year life which means you need to be putting money into a sinking fund to finance the replacement costs.
Careful now
