A local county councillor is condemning the acts of vandalism at local sports facilities in Tipperary Town.
It follows reports that the Canon Hayes Recreation Centre had their new state of the art astro turf pitch set on fire.
The chairman of the centre John McCahill says the damage has now been repaired and the pitch is available for use.
While rugby club Clanwilliam announced that their perimeter fence had been cut through and vandalised.
Sinn Féin’s Tony Black says it’s extremely disappointing and infuriating to see local clubs and recreation centres targeted like this.
Cllr Black says the perpetrators are anti community people and their actions are an insult to our great town.
