Obviuosly Ger O Loughlin with Adare has proved himself as a very good club coach but who else out there in the county can be brught into a club and help progress a club team?

Dave Maheedy in UL must be one of the best overall. His teams have won just about everything at club level.

John Mulqueen has proved his worth alrite. Is he not still with Bruff I thought he trained their U12 hurling team to an undeated season. Surely Bruff must be considered a big club! Senior in hurling and Intermediate in football. I heard John took a break this year thus only coached the U12's. I suspect he shall play a more integral role within the club next season.

Also doing great work around the county are Eddie O'Sullivan and Saoirse Bulfin whose enthusium never ceases to amaze me.

thisisouryear have you some problem with bruff, john is a very good manager, i agree , but i take offence to you suggesting bruff are not a big club. to me its quite obvious wat local club you are with.our club is moving in the right direction and am sure bigger things lay ahead for the stars

my definition of big club would be a club that has recently challenged for Senior county hurling titles and that are an established senior side. as in been senior for a number of years,not with any local club to you, played with jfm yrs ago.

Mark O'Donnell is a real up and coming trainer.. Has guided Ballyagran junior footballers to its first south title in over 4 years. His first year involved with a team, must be one for the future.

i would agree with the last post, Ballyagran look a very good football team, full of hard runners who play a possession game, so obviously very well coached

Roddy Burke is a good trainer, good combination with Tom Ryan this year. Another trainer I have great respect for is Val Murnane, serious coach in my opinion. As for football O'Neill from Ballylanders seems to have a decent record as does Brudar from Drom Broadford

As regards O'Neill with Ballylanders. He's fair shrewd. However, I'd regard him as a football manager rather than a coach or trainer. At one stage he'd taken Bally so far but they hadn't delivered a county. He'd the wisdom and foresight to bring Dominic McGlinchy on board (ex-Tipp manager) to bolster things, to coach, etc. It's a bit like Mickey Ned and Donie Buckley from what I see. It worked Bally won in 2007. O'Neill is sharp!

I think you'll find that it was Tom McGlinchey that trained Bally in '07: I'm not sure if his namesake Dominic had any football coaching experience!!
