Legend.

All Blacks and Munster legend Doug Howlett has officially joined the backroom staff of the Cork Senior Hurlers for the 2019 campaign.

Howlett, who scored 49 tries in 62 Tests for New Zealand, lives in Cork and currently works as Munster Rugby’s Head of Commercial and Marketing, a role that won’t be affected with his new position.

The winger will assume the position of Cork Senior Hurling High Performance Lead, bringing with him a wealth of expertise and experience of playing sport at an elite level.

Former Munster rugby player Jonny Holland, who has a post graduate degree in Applied Sports & Exercise Nutrition, has been appointed as nutritionist to the Cork Senior Football and Hurling teams.
