The fire was reported on Saturday evening

A scoreboard, shop and signage was destroyed in a fire at a GAA club in County Antrim.

Lámh Dhearg GAC said it believed the fire had been started deliberately.

“The club has made great efforts in recent years to improve our club facilities for our members and local community and are deeply concerned by this act of vandalism at a time when our facilities are needed the most,” a spokesperson said.

The Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service said it attended a fire at the club in Hannahstown at about 18:00 BST on Saturday.

Belfast city councillor Arder Carson said the fire was “a pure act of deliberate vandalism that fills you with despair”.

“Attacking the very organisation that provides so much for young people and the entire community. It has to be condemned without reservation,” the Sinn Féin councillor said.

He appealed for anyone with information to come forward.
