Power’s journey takes new turn

On Sunday week, David Power will take charge of the Wexford senior football side for the first time in a competitive game as they take on Dublin IT in Gorey.

At 31, the Tipperary native will be the youngest inter-county manager in the country in 2015, but that doesn’t mean he is short on experience. In 2011, he led Tipp to the All-Ireland minor title while they achieved back-to-back Munster titles in ’12. He has also been in charge of the Premier County’s U21s as well as combining managing the senior team in his home club, Kilsheelan-Kilcash, with being chairman.

All told, the involvement on the sideline stretches back a decade.
