News of the approval of a £1.9 million spend on sports pitches in the Isle of Man is being welcomed by the Vice President of Vagabonds Rugby club.
Allan Thompson says it's incredible news after Tynwald gave the Ballafletcher in Braddan project the green light.
Four playing pitches and training areas will be built for use by Vagas together with Corinthians and Douglas Royal Football clubs.
Mr. Thompson says it's a real boost for Manx sport:
Shooting: Winter series gets underway
Ward, Berg and Parr lead the way
Cycling: Bostock nominated for national champion of the year
Manxman one of six riders on British Cycling shortlist
Football: Railway Cup hopefuls all maintain pace in premier league
Castletown stay four points clear atop Division 2
Rugby: Vagabonds Ladies stay top with another victory
Vagabonds men and Douglas also take respective wins on home soil
