Wexford are set to appoint Darragh Egan as their new senior hurling manager.
Egan, who's from Tipperary is in the running for bainisteoir following Davy Fitzgerald's departure earlier this year.
The Kiladangan has won two All-Ireland titles as a player for his home county and was a selector and coach in Liam Sheedy’s backroom team, winning 2019's All-Ireland.
In a statement, Wexford GAA Chairperson, Michaél Martin says Egan understands performance at the highest level:
“Our strategic plan, “Ar Aghaidh Linn le Chéile”, is the most ambitious plan ever launched in the history of Wexford GAA with clear and specific goals for on and off the pitch. We are conscious that the performance of our senior hurling team is a key element in the social wellbeing of our county.
Darragh Egan is a sharp, enthusiastic and energetic leader who understands performance at an elite level. He is process-driven and has a hunger for success. He has experience of leading in a high-performance environment and I have no doubt that he will bring a wealth of knowledge to Wexford hurling as we aim to take the next step on the journey to success.”
We hope that you will join us in making Darragh welcome in Wexford and integrating him into the Wexford GAA family.
Wexford GAA are delighted to announce that we will be proposing Darragh Egan as our new Senior Hurling Manager to the County Board for ratification later this month.
