‘Sparrow’ Newtown manager
O’Loughlin, an All-Ireland-winner in 1995 and ’97, coached his native club Clarecastle to the 2005 Clare title before then guiding Adare to a three-in-a-row in Limerick from 2007-09, ironically losing to Newtown in the ’09 Munster Club semi-final.
He then coached the Clare senior team in 2010 and 2011.
