In his address to the nation this evening Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has confirmed that sport, can begin a welcome return to action on June 29.
All sporting activities can recommence for adults and children, with very limited numbers of spectators. Phase 3 will also see 50 people allowed to gather indoors, and 200 outdoors. Phase 4 means 100 people can gather indoors, and 500 outdoors.
There is expected to be a separate Government briefing on sport in general later this evening, but the return to action for Limerick sporting clubs has most certainly opened earlier than expected.
