Séamus Callanan joins Offaly backroom team as forwards coach

Offaly manager Johnny Kelly has added former Tipperary forward Séamus Callanan to his backroom team for 2025.

The 2019 Hurler of the Year has taken on the role as forwards coach and will link up with former Tipperary team-mate Brendan Maher and Maher's brother Martin who are already part of the Faithful set-up.

The 36-year-old will look to lend his expertise to an Offaly side that will compete in the Leinster championship in 2025.

Callanan has called time on a 16-year career as a senior inter-county hurler last year having won three All-Irelands - 2010, 2016, 2019 - and an Allianz League title in 2008.

Four All-Star awards also came the way of the Drom and Inch clubman during a 16-year inter-county career.
