BACK ON BOARD…Antrim have retained last year’s hurling management

“Thought needs to be given as to how to instill and nurture a hurling culture within schools and communities where it currently doesn’t exist or where there is, at best, indifference.

“This work needs to be done with parents, teachers and, importantly, boards of governors of primary and post-primary schools.”
