Kerry hurling boss feels lower tier sides ignored

Kerry hurling boss Tom Howard has berated GAA chiefs for neglecting hurling’s lower tier competitions.

The Clarecastle native says it is impossible to improve hurling in the weaker counties because teams are afforded too few games.

“We play five league games and four in the Christy Ring Cup and that is a good year where you make the final. You’d like to have a situation where you would have maybe 15 games and have fellas training throughout the summer.”
