Top Galway hurling prospect Jack Canning is heading off to Australia to pursue a rugby career.

Canning, a nephew of 2017 hurler of the year Joe, scored 2-2 and won the man-of-the-match award as Galway won the 2017 Minor All-Ireland. Canning scored 4-9 in that three-game campaign, 3-9 from play, and added a Leinster U21 title this summer.
