Conor O’Mahony Retires from Inter County Hurling
Conor O’Mahony Retirement Announcement:
“Having had the great honour of playing with Tipperary at all levels over the last 15 years, I have decided to call time on my inter-county hurling career. It was a huge privilege for me to play with Tipperary. I will have great memories from my time as a Tipperary player and particularly of 2010 when we won the All Ireland senior hurling championship. I want to thank all the players on the panel in my time. I have made great friendships and have many treasured memories. I am grateful to the management teams and their backroom staff who gave me such great encouragement and support. I also want to thank Tipperary Co Board and my club, Newport, for their great loyalty and support during my time playing with Tipperary. Playing inter-county hurling requires lots of sacrifices particularly from players’ families. I want to thank Niamh and my family and friends for their great support at all times. I would also like to thank my employers Snickers Workwear for their support and encouragement to me in my playing career. Finally, I want to wish Tipperary well for the future. I have no doubt this current group of players will go on to achieve many more successes. ”
