The Waterford minor managers for 2023 were ratified at last night's county board meeting in Dungarvan.
Lismore's James O'Connor will take charge of the minor hurlers for the next two years. He will be assisted by Gavin O'Brien of Roanmore, Seamus Hannon from Ballyduff Upper and Mount Sion's Nicholas Mackey.
Michael Murphy from Fenor will manage the Déise minor footballers next season. He will be joined on the sideline by Mark Nugent (Dunhill), Dale Long (The Nire) and Des Kennedy (Gaultier).
Pa Kearney of Ballyduff Upper has been added to Gary O'Keeffe's Under 20 hurling backroom team.
County board chairman Sean Michael O'Regan hopes that the redevelopment of Walsh Park will start in the next couple of weeks. He says that they are nearly ready to begin Phase 1 of the project. "We're very close. We have a couple of discussions to have with Croke Park, we have a couple of discussions to have with the Government but we're very, very close. We'd still be very hopeful to start in the next week, week and a half."
