Juggling diverse careers on and off the pitch

WITH the semi-final of the National Hurling League this Sunday foremost in his mind, Richie Power is managing the balancing act of work and sport with the ease of a practised campaigner.

As one of Kilkenny’s more prominent hurlers with a medal haul that includes six All-Irelands, seven Leinster championships, four National Leagues and two All Stars, the careful preparation for big matches is a routine he knows intimately at this point of his career.

As the Kinetica sales manager for the east, south east and midlands, his work and sporting commitments are maintained on parallel tracks in a schedule running as smoothly as the forward line of his famous team.
