With the inter county season fast approaching it was announced today that Waterford won’t have their home advantage of playing their matches at Walsh Park. A bit of a blow to Davy Fitzgerald and his team to say the least, former Waterford legend Paul Flynn shares in the disappointment.

But yet not one bit surprising. Surely with the split season now it was obvious when to do it.

“Waterford GAA are delighted to announce that the Phase 1 Redevelopment of Walsh Park has commenced,” the statement reads.

“Following extensive discussions with the contractors and in order to meet the strict requirements of the six-month work programme, Walsh Park will not be available to host the scheduled inter-county games.

“Waterford GAA are currently in negotiations with Croke Park and the Munster Council regarding alternative venues for the Allianz Hurling League and Munster Championship games and the details will be advised in due course.

“It is the intention that Walsh Park will be available to host Waterford GAA Club Championship games from July.”
