Top-class coaches ready to face off

IN 1989 and 1991, under Babs Keating, Tipperary won the All-Ireland senior hurling title.
Top-class coaches ready to face off

In 1990, under Justin McCarthy, Cashel King Cormac’s won the West Tipperary senior hurling title, reached the Tipperary county senior hurling final, and won the All-Ireland title the following year for the only time in their history.

With Tipp back in something like the hurling doldrums from which he rescued them in 89, the call again went out to Babs, and he’s back at the helm in the Premier county. In the meantime, in 2002, McCarthy guided Waterford to their first Munster title in nearly 40 years, repeated that achievement two years later and now seeks to lead them to that final peak, an All-Ireland title.
