Waterford native and hurling great Kevin Ryan has been appointed as the new senior and under 21 hurling manager for Carlow. Ryan was ratified at a county board meeting in Carlow last night (Wednesday) and is expected to push the growth of Carlow’s hurling.

The announcement regarding the appointment of Jim Greene’s successor as manager of the county senior hurlers was made at last week’s county board meeting, and quite interesting it was. Trainer of Oulart The Ballagh for the last two seasons, Kevin Ryan is to be the new man in charge. Speaking to county chairman Pat Deering in the lead up to the appointment, he assured me that a very highly regarded candidate had expressed interest in the job. This is in no small way due to the fact that the profile of Carlow hurling has risen consistently over the last few years with the performances of some very talented minor teams and the senior squad’s Christy Ring success this year.
