All who attended this camp agreed they truly enjoyed there stay here in Brookfield Hall Student Apartments and would be recommending it to the other groups which attend the University of Limerick for various different camps during the summer months.

Brookfield Hall was delighted to be able to accommodate the many participants in this sporting event. Some of the young participants were explaining to me all about this wonderful event which is the female equivalent of the Kennedy Cup. This is played on a regional basis rather than local leagues and it also covers different age groups. There are divisions at under 14, 16, 18 and there were 21 teams in all that enjoyed a wonderful weekend of soccer. I have been told that this competition has really grown in stature over the last few years with the FAI and UNBRO putting their full might behind the Tournament. All participants of this event who stayed with us were very impressed with our Luxury Student Apartments. They found Brookfield Hall to be of ideal location due to it being so near the University of Limerick.

The Sporting Facilities available in UL truly are second to none. The word “Sport” has long been synonymous with Limerick as a city and perhaps that is the reason that it was here that Ireland’s first 50m swimming pool was built. Along with the Olympic size swimming pool, the UL arena boasts many other facilities such as the Cardio Fitness Centre, the National Strength and Conditioning Centre and many more. UL also has its own activity centre on Lough Derg. This offers students to not only take part in more traditional team sports such as rugby, hurling and waterpolo but also to enjoy sports such as sailing and windsurfing as part of some of the wide range of clubs in UL. No matter what kind of sport you’re into, there’s something for everyone from aerobics to archery so there simply is no excuse for not giving something a go!
