His managerial career saw him take charge of Dublin, who he guided to National League (2011) and Leinster senior (2013) glory, along with his native Clare, while he had spells at club level involved with Clarecastle, Kilmihil, Kilmoyley, and Kilmacud Crokes.

Kildare native Tompkins started out with his club Eadestown, before winning a Leinster U21 medal with the Lilywhites in 1983. Having moved to New York, he forged friendships that resulted in him joining West Cork side Castlehaven, claiming two Cork and three Munster senior medals in their ranks.
At county level he helped Cork win back-to-back All-Ireland honours in 1989 and 1990, captain for the second of those wins. His honours list also included six Munster senior, one National League, and three All-Star honours.
