    I've played in CIT, Leisureworld and Nemo.

    Nemo is shocking and had serious (!) pitch subsidance, nets at the sidelines and in general was crap.

    CIT has sidelines with nets but also has space at the sidelines for the ball to go out of play etc.

    Leisureworld has solid walls at the sidelines (with no space) and the best goals of the lot.

    The best pitches in cork are Leisureworld(bishopstown) and the millenium.

    A couple of the pitches at leisureworld aren't great. Supernova in Ballincollig is quite good too, they have nets over the pitches which is handy because it means the ball can't be kicked over.

    The glen is like supernova..Tbh i dont like the way the goals are small and the net above the place is a pro and con..its good that the ball will never go out, but it also means you cant do any high balls.
