Munster man a model professional in team’s race around province

Darren Sweetnam is already known as a jack of all trades, having played underage hockey and badminton for Ireland and breaking into the Cork senior hurling team before he’d sat his Leaving Cert.

The next step? A Munster academy contract. Naturally.

The 20-year-old yesterday added modelling to his repertoire on day two of the Munster Race, which has seen six groups of players traversing the province’s towns, relying on goodwill to get them food, transport, and accommodation as part of a team-building exercise.
