New Coaching Team For Munster A’s
4th September 2013 By Munster Rugby
Elite Player Development Manager Peter Malone will assume the role of Head Coach for the Munster A’s for season 2013/14.
Malone will be joined by Elite Development Officers Colm McMahon and Greig Oliver on the coaching panel and outgoing Head Coach Ian Costello will act as the senior team co-ordinator in continuing the close ties between the senior and A squad. Former Munster U20s Team Manager Alan Miller takes over the role of match-day Team Manager.
The Munster A squad open their 2013/14 campaign when they take on Connacht A in their first Interprovincial game in Musgrave Park next Wednesday September 11th at 5pm, and they commence their British & Irish Cup action in October with fixtures listed here.
The Munster A squad has provided the ideal outlet to promote and further develop Munster’s up and coming talent with Ronan O’Mahony a clear example of this. O’Mahony who after completing three years in the academy was rewarded with a senior contract for season 13/14 off the back of impressive Munster A performances. He has made 18 appearances at B&I Cup level, scoring four tries and his form continued last week against London Irish when scoring a hat-trick in Musgrave Park.
All support is welcome at Musgrave Park next Wednesday with the latest offerings of Munster’s young talent on show.
