Ryan confirms Beary role

Limerick’s hurling coach for the remainder of the 2014 campaign will be current selector Paul Beary, manager TJ Ryan confirmed in Charleville.

In the wake of Donal O’Grady’s departure, and with only five weeks remaining til the Munster SHC semi-final against Tipperary, there is simply no time to install a new coach, according to Ryan.

“We have only three weeks of training to go so basically myself and Paul Beary will be handling that (coaching). Paul has coached Na Piarsaighto two Limerick county championships and two Munsters, so he’s well capable of handling this. He’s going to head up the coaching for the next few weeks and that’s the way it will stay.”
