Former Tipperary hurler James Woodlock has been announced as the county’s new minor hurling manager, while Paddy Christie will take charge of the under-20 footballers.
Woodlock takes over the role from his Drom and Inch clubmate Paul Collins having been involved with the Tipp under-16 side in recent years.
Joining Woodlock will be his ex-Tipperary teammate Conor O’Brien (Eire Óg Annacarthy Donohill), Damian Ryan (Portroe), Brendan Ferris (Marlfield) and Cormac McGrath (Ballinahinch), with further additions expected once Covid-19 restrictions are lifted.
Former Dublin full-back Christie, whose mother hails from Lorrha in North Tipperary, will combine the under-20 job with the coaching role he already fills with the senior team, who delivered a first Munster title since 1935 last year.
He replaces Tom McGlinchey and will be assisted by the rest of the senior management team, with further appointments also in the offing.
