Up until then the club played its official games at Ballyforan (St. Aidans GAA Club) or Johnstown (Clan Na Gael GAA Club), The Club also used facilities such as Finneran's Field Taughmaconnell, Green's Field Moore, St Bridgets Hospital Grounds Creagh and the Pitch at the rear of the then Falty National School now the Home of Moore United Soccer Club. However, after years of planning and fundraising, the club carried out a major development plan. The grounds at Woodmount, at the time, one of the finest in the country, were officially opened in 1984 by Dr. Donal Keenan, former President of the GAA and two time All-Ireland medal winner. The original grounds consisted of one full size pitch and one training area.The club purchased additional land in the mid nineties and developed a further full size pitch along with a training area. In the early 2000s new dressing rooms were build adjoined to the old ones. This included 2 dressing rooms with showers and a gym which was later converted into two large dressing rooms, This expansion was necessary with the growth of Ladies Gaelic Football and Camogie within the Club. In recent times a new hurling wall and storage area has been built along with the expansion of the stand encompassing a press area. This has been made possible by the hard work of dedicated club members, with good support from the local Communities. The grounds buildings presently consist of a Clubhouse, including members bar, offices and social hall, two Squash Courts, 6 full size dressing rooms, referees room, showers, toilets, storage sheds and a stand which includes a press area. Playing and training facilities include 2 full size playing fields one of which is floodlit, 2 training fields one floodlit, a hurling wall and a half mile, sand running/amenity track. The Club Currently holds the World record for the largest GAA training session of all time 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Padraig Pearses GAA Roscommon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
