Training facilities in UCD and UL are expecting bookings within the next few weeks due to the announcement. There's time for more to be built and existing ones improved on (NAQ etc).
It's a great thing for Ireland seen as we're not likely to host it ourselves in the near future. That amount of visitors to Britain should have alot of overspill to here with the "sure while we're that far" attitude.
Teams from all over the world will use us as part of the acclimatisation before the games.
