History
Astropark Ballingarry is situated in Ballingarry, the heart of West Limerick, and is managed by Ballingarry AFC. A sponsored walk was organised, money was generated, and a pitch was secured in large part thanks to the generosity of the late Archdeacon Lyons. The club moved home to a pitch supplied by the late Bernard Sheehy at the rear of the 'Grove'.
