What the new Dundalk IT Sports Arena will look like when fully operational
The Dundalk IT Sports Arena opened its doors for the first time on Monday.
The former JJB Complex at Dundalk Retail Park had been purchased by the college in December 2013 with plans to open it last September delayed until now.
The facility is being co-funded by students at the college, who will each pay a €125 levy each year towards it.
While the sports arena will not be fully operational until the summer, the eight five-a-side football pitches are now in use as well as a large training area, which is made up of three more pitches.
The facility will be opened to the public in the summer, by which stage the arena will have the swimming pool, steam rooms, jacuzzis and gym all in operation.
