Limerick to appoint retention officer to keep footballers on board

A root and branch review of Limerick football has recommended the appointment of a full-time development officer and the creation of a retention officer post so as to improve the number of players willing to line out for the county senior team.

The 18 recommendations contained within the 24-page report of the Limerick football review committee, which began its work in September of last year, are currently being debated at club level and will come before the county board this September.
