Facilities
BRYR manages two youth facilities: The Reco and St Pappin's Youth Centre. Both can be booked by any organisation or group for youth work activity in line with the goals of the Ballymun Youth Development Plan.
In 2008 the Reco Sports Area was completed. This comprises an all-weather juvenile hurling area, which is divisible into three 5-a-side football pitches, and a 7-a-side tarmac pitch to the rear of The Reco. During school hours the facility will be used by the Holy Spirit schools and outside these hours BRYR will manage access by the community. Unfortunately, due to legal difficulties in completing the License Agreement with Dublin City Council there has been a significant delay in handing over the property to BRYR's management. We are working hard to resolve this in early 2009.

The Facilities Team works hard to make The Reco as inviting a place as possible for young people. Feedback and over 600 young visitors a week suggest we're succeeding!
