Irish athletics stalwart Sean Naughton has been praised for “putting Nenagh on the athletics map” after his passing in recent days.

He died at the age of 88 after decades of service to the sport, which included being the figurehead for a project which saw Ireland’s first indoor athletics arena built in Nenagh in 1984.
