LAST UPDATE | 10 Oct 2022
WAYNE QUILLINAN HAS been named as the new Kerry minor football manager tonight.
Quillinan impressed last year in steering his club Austin Stacks to the Kerry senior football title with a final win over Tralee rivals Kerins O’Rahilly’s.
His name was put forward and confirmed at Monday’s County Committee meeting. Quillinan will succeed James Costello in the Kerry minor hotseat and will be given a two-year term.
His management team will include Seamus O’Dowd from Dingle, David Heasman from Milltown/Castlemaine and Spa’s Niall O’Mahony.
In addition to lifting the Bishop Moynihan Cup with Austin Stacks, Quillinan also steered his squad to three Kerry senior club championships between 2019 and 2021.
They exited the 2022 county championship at the quarter-final stage on Saturday evening against Feale Rangers and must now play Kenmare Shamrocks in a senior club relegation play-off on Sunday 23 October.
