Pitch and Facilities
Lyres GAA play their home matches in Banteer Community Sportsfield which is based in Banteer.
Facilities

The complex has a park area, 2 pitches, 2 sets of dressing rooms, several walks around the pond and pitches, a children's playgrounds, a ball wall, a museum/exhibition area with a shop and there is accessibility offered by Banteer railway station.
It is the first community-owned, full size, multi-use astro-turf pitch in Munster.
Main Pitch
The original main pitch is usually used for club matches. There is a small stand which can hold up to 200 people and a clubhouse which is under the stand that's adjacent to the pitch. The clubhouse includes 4 changing rooms with showers, an equipment room and a kitchen.
The main pitch often hosts the Duhallow Championship matches and finals, most recently the 2021 hurling final. The pitch is also subject to a lot of high-profile matches in the Cork Premier Senior Hurling Championship and the Cork Premier Senior Football Championship, most recently hosting Blackrock and Charleville in 2021.
Astro Pitch
In 2020, the first phase of an ambitious €1.5million project to develop a suite of world-class sporting facilities in the village of Banteer was completed. In February 2020, the Banteer Community Sportsfield Project was awarded a grant under the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund. With this grant an astro-turf pitch was built over an existing secondary pitch at the sports complex which was usually used for training. The new Astro is still used for training and hosts some matches.
The facility is available year-round for use by a range of different sports clubs across Cork county, west Limerick and east Kerry. The pitch is lined out for soccer and a lot of soccer clubs in Duhallow use this facility as well as the local soccer club in Banteer.
This will incorporate a new spectator stand, changing rooms/showers, and a tea room and a community museum.
