On Hurling Chat this week, Niall and Sean are joined by Shane Hynes, who will referee Sunday's NHL Div 1A Final between Cork and Limerick, and Gavin Keary, the Galway U20 Manager, whose side goes into action on Saturday.
Ahead of the Club Hurling Leagues commencing this weekend in Galway, Shane outlines the changes to the Dissent rule:
- In Adult games, the ball can now be moved 30 metres forward instead of 13 metres
- For U18 grades, dissent by a player can lead to a black card and a 10 minute sin bin
- While, dissent from Team Management can be penalised with a 20 metre free being awarded to the opposition
Gavin talks to Niall in relation to the start of the U20 Leinster Championship on Saturday:
- the opening round clash with Wexford in Portlaoise (2.00pm Sat)
- The importance of the grade in developing players to play Senior for Galway
- His previous coaching roles
