Title: Redeveloping club facilities and building/running club gyms
Post by: AbbeySider on February 12, 2009, 01:55:04 PM
Im wondering has anyone any experience in building and/or running a club gym?

At the minute we are in the process of redeveloping club facilities and we are incorporating a gym, predominately for players but it may open to club members and the public.

What is the story and implications with insurance?
Is there someone working/supervising there all the time?
Has anyone any links or contacts on equipment?

Basically how do other GAA clubs with gyms run it?

I have been in contact with a number of parties all ready but I would welcome any advise from other clubs... Thanks!  ;D
