The late Mick Minogue had remarkable hurling career on and off the field with Tipperary

"His greatest contribution was at Under 21 level, working with All-Ireland-winning teams in 1979, 1980, 1981, 1985 and 1989"

It was with great sadness that Tipperary GAA learned of the passing of Mick Minogue, Roscrea.

In a tribute, the county GAA Board stated "He was one of our county’s greatest-ever mentors who had a remarkable career both on and off the field.

"The winner of five County Senior Hurling titles in 1968, 69, 70, 72 and 73, he was also a key member of Munster and All-Ireland club-winning team in 1971.

"He continued to manage club and county teams in Tipperary, including winning a memorable senior hurling title with Moneygall in 1975.

"He led Tipperary minors to Munster and All-Ireland glory in 1976. He served as a senior selector in the late 70s and early 80s, winning a National League in 1979.

"His greatest contribution was at Under 21 level, working with All-Ireland-winning teams in 1979, 1980, 1981, 1985 and 1989.

"Tipperary GAA extends our deepest sympathy to Paul, Daithí, Carmel, Aidan, Valerie, Ciara and Michael; his sisters Teresa and Sheila; his grandchildren and great grandchildren and all his relatives, neighbours and friends".
