Cian Lynch has been named captain of the Limerick senior hurling team for the 2025 season with William O’Donoghue appointed as vice-captain.

The 29-year-old takes over the armband from Declan Hannon, who has skippered the side since 2017 and lifted five All-Ireland hurling titles for Limerick during that time, including four in a row between 2020 and 2023.
