The September meeting of Clare GAA at Caherlohan on Monday night, was told that
St Joseph’s Miltown clubman Michael Neylon and his management team had agreed to continue for another term.
It was a similar position in relation to under 20 hurling manager Terence Fahy who was also unanimously re-appointed with the meeting told that there is one more addition to be appointed to his team.
Outgoing coach Aidan Harte has been appointed as a member of Micheal O’Donoghue’s Galway senior management team.
Chairman Kieran Keating told the meeting that the appointment of minor managers for next season will be confirmed at the next meeting as the appointments had first to be confirmed at a meeting of the board’s management committee.
