Cork minor boss Brian Herlihy happy with roles for ex-stars

Cork minor manager Brian Herlihy has lauded the influence of backroom members and former Cork footballers Alan Quirke and Noel O’Leary.

O’Leary, half-back on the 2010 All-Ireland winning Cork team, is one of four selectors working under Herlihy, while Quirke, another member of that 2010 side, has assumed the role of goalkeeping coach.

Herlihy has cited the pair’s involvement as invaluable, also stressing the importance of keeping recently retired players involved at some level within the Cork set-up.
