Restless Seán Powter targeting playing return in two weeks

Cork’s rising star Seán Powter is ramping up his rehab as he plans a return to play in a fortnight’s time.

Powter, who suffered a hamstring tear in January’s league opener against Tipperary, is set to resume sprinting in training this week.

Speaking at the UCC Sport Star Awards on Monday, Powter said: “The rehab is going good. I’m back sprinting on Tuesday, hopefully, and then hopefully ready to go, back into games in two weeks’ time.
