Design work for the proposed new building for the Enniscorthy Sports Hub has begun with construction work expected to start in September.
Last year the Government announced grant funding of €300,000 from the Department of Tourism Transport and Sport for the facility which was aimed at Phase 2 of the development to proceed.
The first phase was constructed in 2015 meanwhile the new project will include a sports equipment storage area, changing rooms, toilets, showers and a small staff office.
Meanwhile some golf clubs in the county have received a boost with Sport Ireland providing funding through the club resilience fund initiative.
Enniscorthy Golf Club will receive €24,500 under the scheme while €20,000 has been put aside for Courtown.
Golf Clubs in Wexford Town and New Ross will each benefit to the tune of €15,950.
