They have an unwavering commitment to the future of Galway football as demonstrated through their involvement at academy and club level before taking on these roles. They have had a hugely positive effect on developing talent in Galway with the benefits of this already identifying itself at senior intercounty level this year. I want to thank them for their dedication and professionalism over the past couple of years.”
“In hurling, we are deeply indebted to Fergal Healy and his team for their management of the u20 team over the past two years as well as their exceptional contribution across all levels of Galway hurling. Fergal has been instrumental in establishing and enhancing high-performance structures from academy to U20 level over the past four years. His work has always been guided by the long-term interests and betterment of Galway hurling and we are confident that this impact will be further evident in the years ahead. We extend our thanks to Fergal and his team for their invaluable work and will ensure their vision and work to date is carried forward.”
