Three Tipperary hurlers named to represent Ireland in this year's Shinty International in Scotland

Three Tipperary hurlers will represent Ireland in the Shinty International in Inverness

Three Tipperary hurlers have been selected for the Ireland squad ahead of the Hurling/Shinty International Rules Series clash with Scotland in Inverness.

All-Ireland winners Eoghan Connolly, Darragh McCarthy and Alan Tynan have all earned call-ups to represent their country in the cross-code fixture, which takes place later this month.

The Ireland squad features players from across the country, such as Limerick, Galway, Kilkenny, Antrim and Laois.

The management team for the series includes Damien Coleman, Michael Kavanagh, Joe O’Leary, Terence McNaughton and Kevin O’Brien.

Ireland will take on Scotland in a hybrid version of hurling and shinty, combining elements of both traditional sports and this will take place in November.
