The search for a new Tipperary senior hurling manager has begun in earnest.

The Tipperary County Board has formed a five-man committee tasked with finding a successor to Michael Ryan over the coming weeks.

Ryan stepped down from the role earlier this month having been appointed as manager in 2016, winning the All-Ireland title in his first year.

The committee is being headed by the county board's chairman John Devane, vice-chairman Joe Kennedy, secretary Tim Floyd, treasurer Michael Power and PRO Joe Bracken.

No time limit has been set on finding a new manager, but it is thought that the committee would like to have a candidate in place for ratification before the knockout stages of the county senior hurling championship.
