Young guns key to Ulster’s hurling future

WHILE Tuesday’s announcement of a €2.6m Hurling Development Plan grabbed headlines, the Ulster Council have already been putting in place plans to strengthen and develop the small ball game.

Young guns key to Ulster’s hurling future

Frankie Quinn, a member of the Ruairi Óg club in Cushendall, but originally from Lámh Dhearg in Belfast, has been in the post of Ulster Hurling Development Officer since the start of August. He will soon be joined by Jimmy Darragh, who will take over as Hurling Development Manager. There will also be a network of nine Hurling Development Officers, one in each Ulster county.

The announcement of the development plan contains good news for the province but, as Quinn points out, Ulster’s wheels are already in motion.
