Ballingarry’s Liam Cahill was last night appointed as the new manager of the Tipperary minor hurling team while TJ Connolly (Cashel King Cormacs) will take over as manager of the county’s U21 team.

THE future for hurling has assumed a blue and gold hue.

OF THE four remaining teams in tomorrow’s Tipperary SHC semi-finals, one stands out. In what many will see as the main event, champions Toomevara continue their Kerry-like run through the back door, take on Drom & Inch, the only divisional champions still standing.
