John Meyler has been appointed as the new Cork hurling manager.

Meyler, a selector under Kieran Kingston, will take charge for a two year term.

Cork GAA Chairman Ger Lane is delighted with the announcement. "Our Senior hurlers had a very successful season in 2017, and maintaining continuity and building on that good work is vital,” Lane stated. 

“John Meyler brings a wealth of experience to the role, has extensive knowledge of all the young players coming through, and has been part of the outgoing management team. John will now work on appointing his backroom team. We wish him every success in the role.”

Denis Ring will manage Cork at Under 21 level in 2018 with John Considine named as minor boss.
