The Limerick Leader has reported that Begley and Kissane are to be brought on board as a selector and coach respectively while Ricky Ronayne will also be a selector.
Begley is a former Limerick senior dual player and the Mungret club man lined out in the 2007 All-Ireland senior hurling final at full-forward against Kilkenny.
Kissane was part of Cork’s 2010 All-Ireland final triumph as a player while in recent seasons he has been involved in coaching with the Clare senior footballers in 2014 and the Cork senior footballers this season.
Ronayne coached Monaleen to the Limerick senior football title this year while Barry Fitzpatrick, who was part of that Monaleen team, will be the squad’s strength and conditioning coach.
