Cork GAA Statement- New Senior Hurling Manager

Cork County GAA Executive will propose the appointment of Pat Ryan, Sarsfields, as Cork Senior Hurling manager, for ratification at tomorrow night’s County Committee meeting for July in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
A three-year term will be proposed, with selectors to be named at a later date.
A winner of Munster and All Ireland Senior Hurling medals in 1999, Pat had earlier won Munster and All Ireland U21 medals (1998), as well as a National League medal (1997).

 

Having won two County titles with Sarsfields as a player (2008 & 2010), he managed his home Club to further victories in 2012 and 2014.
Pat has previously served as a Senior selector and coach under Kieran Kingston in 2016 and 2017, respectively, before returning as Cork U20 Hurling manager in 2020 and 2021 when he guided the County to Munster and All Ireland titles in consecutive seasons.
He has also served on various committees over the same period, making a significant contribution to the Club Championship reforms of recent years.
In welcoming the appointment, Cork GAA Chairman, Marc Sheehan said, “We are thrilled to have someone of Pat’s calibre so ready to take up the significant mantle of Cork Senior Hurling manager. Having seen his management and coaching skills with our teams previously, I have no doubt that the development of our players is in safe hands.”
Cork GAA CEO, Kevin O’Donovan said, “Pat’s appointment will be another clear example of our desire to provide a pathway to managers and coaches through both Club and County systems. His record in both arenas speaks for itself and we look forward to him building on the significant work completed by the outgoing management team in the ongoing pursuit of Liam McCarthy.”

Cork GAA Statement 03/07/22- Kieran Kingston

Cork GAA Statement 03/07/22 -Kieran Kingston
 
Cork GAA officers have been informed by Cork Senior Hurling manager Kieran Kingston that he will not be seeking a further term in the role.
All in Cork GAA wish to sincerely acknowledge Kieran’s years of dedication across a whole range of positions, including the roles of player, selector, coach and of course, manager.
Having initially served as selector (2012-2013) and coach (2014) under Jimmy Barry-Murphy, Kieran was appointed manager for the 2016 and 2017 seasons, before returning in the same role for three further years, from 2020 to 2022.
Over that time, he has been present on the line, as selector and manager in 2013 and 2021, respectively, for Cork’s only two All Ireland Senior Final appearances of the last sixteen years. He also coached and managed the team to Munster success in 2014 and 2017, respectively.
The incredible contribution of Kieran’s backroom team over the past three years is also acknowledged and while the success that all deserved may not have followed, they can hold their heads high, knowing that they served their County well.
Chairman of Cork GAA, Marc Sheehan said, “Kieran’s commitment to his duties as Cork Senior Hurling manager knew no bounds and the time devoted in a voluntary capacity was immeasurable. He carried the role in a dignified manner at all times, fully understanding of the importance of his position. We wish him well in his future endeavours and have no doubt that he will continue to make a significant contribution to Cork Hurling long into the future.”
Cork GAA CEO, Kevin O’Donovan said, “Looking across the past decade, one has to recognise the indelible mark that Kieran has left on our Senior Hurling team, overseeing what has been a difficult transition at times, with the introduction of a whole wave of young and exciting talent. Indeed, there is no doubt that, given the number of players who made their debuts under Kieran, he departs safe in the knowledge that he has left Cork Hurling in a healthy state. We thank his family, particularly his wife Ellen, for their support also.”
Cork County Executive will now immediately commence the appointment process for the position of Cork Senior Hurling manager.
