i have a bit of a project to do and i need to get the names of the main grounds for all the counties in Ireland, and i figured you would be the best option.

cheers guys, just Louth and Wicklow to get.
Wikipedia has them as 'Aughrim Park' and 'Drogheda Park' respectively for Wicklow and Louth, but I think that's wrong, and Leitrim's should be as gaelige rather than my English version (Pairc Sean McDiarmiada)
Donegal - McCumhaill Park
Cavan - Kingspan Breffni Park!
Strictly speaking we don't have a county grounds, or not a decent one anyway >:(
The answer you need though is, The Gaelic Grounds in Drogheda
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_GAA_stadia
Galway - Pearse Stadium
Fon a Cab Casement Park!

Donegal - McCool Park
Its MacCumhaill Park. I've never heard the English version used, especially as the local club is Sean MacCumhaills.

i heard it called that the other day but i knew it was actually meant to be in irish, just didn't know the spelling!
O'Byrne Park, Aughrim
Is that them all now and all correct?
