Interview: Seán Walsh, former Kerry and Munster chairman

Former Kerry and Munster chairman Seán Walsh will this Wednesday begin in earnest his three-year role as chairman of the national referees development body.

You were never a referee but you’ve supervised them during your time in Kerry and Munster?

I have been an administrator for a long number of years at county, provincial and national levels. That’s the experience I have. People will automatically think football because the chairman of the referees committee is from Kerry, but this is an administrative role.
