Limerick Hurling Manager John Kiely Celebrates Winning Big in Tipperary GAA Draw

Limerick senior hurling manager John Kiely is celebrating a second win in Tipperary territory this summer. Following his team's victory at the FBD Semple Stadium in Thurles in the Munster final, Kiely has now secured a different kind of triumph. The five-time Liam McCarthy Cup-winning boss has scooped €1,000 in the Tipperary Clubs Draw.

Winning Ticket Purchase Through Lattin-Cullen GAA Club

Kiely's winning ticket was purchased through the Lattin-Cullen GAA club, situated just across the Limerick-Tipperary border. This club is renowned for nurturing the talent of Tipperary hurling legend Nicky English.

Kiely's Strong Links to Tipperary

The manager boasts several connections to Tipperary. Up until this past summer, he held a teaching position at The Abbey School in Tipperary town. For many years, he served as the school's principal before transitioning to the role of vice-principal. Currently, Kiely is on a career break from the school.

A Tipperary Footballer Also Wins Big

In a similar vein, former Tipperary football star Colin O'Riordan, who has also played Aussie Rules football, emerged as a winner in the same draw. O'Riordan entered the draw through the Killea GAA club, located near Templemore.

Celebrating Success in Tipperary

John Kiely's victory in the Tipperary Clubs Draw is a testament to his deep connection to the county. It's a heartwarming story of a successful manager celebrating a personal win in a region he knows well. The draw provides a much-needed boost for GAA clubs across Tipperary, further solidifying the importance of community and sport in the county.
