HURLING: YELLOWBELLIES' PLAN

Wexford GAA turn to decorated Treaty coach Kinnerk for guidance

- BY KARL O'KANE

WEXFORD GAA are working on a new Strategic Plan, with Limerick's multiple All-Ireland-winning coach Paul Kinnerk involved as a consultant.

Kinnerk, who also coached Clare to the 2013 All-Ireland, is renowned as an innovative thinker and strategic planner.

The former Limerick footballer has helped John Kiely’s Treaty side to five All-Ireland titles and six Munster crowns over the past nine seasons.

Kinnerk and Kiely have completed one year of their latest two-year term, which is up at the end of the 2026 season.

Wexford GAAs latest move comes after some disappointing seasons on the hurling front over recent years.

They were almost relegated to the McDonagh Cup (2023), having to beat Kilkenny at Wexford Park in the final round to stay up.
