Cormac Coffey is immersed in a winning environment every day of his working life. Each weekday morning, he sets out on the journey from Tralee to the North Kerry hurling stronghold of Kilmoyley for his job as a primary teacher in the local school, Scoil Naoimh Eirc.

Earlier this year, Kilmoyley moved above Ballyduff in the county championship roll of honour by annexing their 26th title, their second in succession. As the Kerins O’Rahillys’ corner-back finalises his preparations for Sunday’s county football final against Austin Stacks (3pm), Coffey is hoping that some of that trophy-lifting pedigree can rub off on his Strand Road side.
