Ken Hogan Tipperary
Former Tipperary senior hurling manager Ken Hogan, who won five Munster titles and two All-Ireland crowns during his playing career as goalkeeper with the Premier County, has been handed a two-year term in charge of the county’s U-21 hurlers.
Ken won two under-14 ‘B’ championship medals in 1976 and 1977 and an under-21 ‘B’ medal in 1983. He was a member of the Tipperary senior inter-county team from 1987 until 1993, winning two North Tipperary senior hurling championship medals and captaining his side to the title in 1989.
Ken will be assisted in his new post by Tommy Dunne, TJ Connolly and William Maher.
Ken Hogan, from the Lorrha-Dorrha club, stepped into management when his playing days ended, serving as a selector alongside former Tipp senior boss Fr. Tom Fogarty in the 1990s.
Hogan was elevated to the top position for two seasons in his own right when he succeeded Michael Doyle as team boss in 2003.
