Corrigan names squad for forthcoming campaign
Provincial championship looms
The countdown is on to the start of the Leinster u-20 HC and Meath manager Sean Corrigan has released his squad for the campaign.
A stalwart with Kildalkey and Meath teams in his own playing days Corrigan managed the Ballivor footballers last year before taking charge of the county u-20 hurlers.
He has been working diligently, along with his players, to prepare for the challenges ahead.
Westmeath is first up for Meath at Pairc Tailteann on Saturday 30th March, 2pm followed by a clash with Derry in Tier 2, Group A. In Group B Carlow, Kildare and Kerry will face each other.
The u-20 Meath management team also includes Paul Reilly (Dunboyne), Thomas Duignan (Killyon) and Vinny Guy (Boardsmill).
The manager and his selectors have certainly spread their net out far and wide to get together the panel.
Players from 16 clubs have been included in the panel. There are sizeable contingents from hurling strongholds such as Kilmessan and Kildalkey, as might be expected.
There is also a big contingent from Moylagh/Kilskrye and Navan O'Mahonys however there is only one from Trim, something of a surprise considering their standing in the local hurling fraternity.
