DESSIE HUTCHINSON HAS been named as captain of the Waterford hurlers for the 2025 season.
His appointment was confirmed this evening as manager Peter Queally also named Lismore’s Iarlaith Daly as the team’s vice-captain.
Hutchinson takes over from Jamie Barron and Stephen Bennett who were joint captains for the 2024 campaign.
The former Brighton player has made a huge impact for Waterford since retiring from professional football and joining the Déise side in 2020. Waterford contested the All-Ireland final that season against Limerick in December as the championship was restructured due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
