I got this this morning via my club Secretary; it may be of interest to the casters to follow up.
Hi all,
At the Sports HQ in Blanchardstown there is ground available to develop into a casting area if anybody is interested. This offer won't stand for very long, so if interested in same, please let me know by Saturday, as I will be attending an ACI meeting early next week and I will raise the matter there.
Regards,
John Martin,
Secretary,
Irish Federation of Sea Anglers.

i sent that onto sportscast ireland 2 years ago and around the ifsa via the national secretary - no reply - its a shame that resource is sitting there unused for the last 6 or 7 years
as the old addage goes - use it or lose it
if it was taken up - it could be used as a source of funding for all fishing and organisations within it - as its not a blood sport and would be looked on favourably
murmurs that it could become an olympic sport soon enough

Excuse my stupidity but what do you mean by a casting area??
Wed Sep 13, 2017 7:02 pm
you need a safe space to bang something out 200 metres

A safe space is about 500m square the distance that those guys can crackoff !!!!
Thu Sep 14, 2017 5:44 pm
Exactly how big of an area is it?
And what's in the surrounding areas?
As mentioned crack offs can travel a long way..
The last time I was approached about this as a venue was with Tom lillis (rip) but when I gave him our court diamentions and run off needed he said it wouldn't suitable!?
