Cork All-Ireland winners Ó hAilpín and Kenny take first step into hurling management

The pair take over UCC’s Freshers team.

UCC’S FRESHER HURLING team will be coached by Cork legends Seán Óg Ó hAilpín and Tom Kenny this season as they go in search of their first championship since 2013.

The All-Ireland winners will take charge of the team alongside Stephen Moylan, Shane Bourke and Martin Walsh.

Ó hAilpín and Kenny, who have won five Liam MacCarthy Cups between them, will hope to emulate the feat of Dublin boss Ger Cunningham who was the last manager to guide UCC to Freshers success.

“We are delighted that such an experienced group of sportsmen will be involved with the training and development of a new breed of college hurler this year,” Dr Paddy Crowley, UCC Hurling Club President, said.

“Over the years UCC GAA Club has promoted, in both codes, countless numbers of young players and has overseen their sporting progression and development.

“Seán Óg and the rest of the lads bring a wealth of experience which can only be good for those they will coach.”
