Cunningham steps away after successful stint at Craobh Rua

THE 2021 Ulster junior hurling champions Craobh Rua are on the look out for a new manager for the upcoming season.

Paul Cunningham has stepped away from the hotseat following a hugely successful couple of years in charge.

Cunningham played for Craobh Rua in their only Ulster final appearance prior to last season, when they lost to Antrim’s Creggan Kickhams in 2013.

Cunningham led Craobh Rua to back-to-back Armagh junior titles and completed the double in 2021, winning both the league and championship.

He also had a hand in Carrickcruppen’s football success last season, as they were crowned Armagh intermediate football champions.
Cunningham was assistant manager to Barry Flynn as ‘Cruppen ended a 17-year win for intermediate glory.
