Howard blames players for quitting Kerry role

Former Kerry hurling trainer Tom Howard has cited a lack of commitment by some players as the reason for his sudden departure.

Howard and his management team issued a joint statement to a meeting of the Kerry County Board on Monday night outlining the reasons behind their decision.

Speaking on Radio Kerry yesterday, Howard said he and his management team felt the Kerry team had to “up their game for next year’s league” but added that they “weren’t able to bring enough of the players with us.”
