Cathal Mullane's journey from the Munster Championship to Nicky Rackard

When Cathal Mullane moved out of Limerick he had an idea he’d play on with his club back home, Kileedy. A couple of hours’ drive home for games? No problem.

How did he end up hurling for Longford in Division 3B of the Allianz Hurling League, then?

“I got a job in Leixlip with Hewlett Packard in 2013 and my girlfriend Edel is from Edgeworthstown in Longford,” says Mullane, who hurled in the Munster senior championship with Limerick.
