“I have a wonderful relationship with Eoin going back many years,” said Tipp boss Sheedy following the appointment.
“He brings a huge amount of experience to the management team and I am thrilled to have him on board.”

O’Shea comes into the new position after previously coming on board with the Tipp backroom team in a support role earlier this year.
“Eamon played a pivotal role ensuring the team was successful in 2019,” said Sheedy, “and he is hugely respected within the group.
“His new role will give him the scope to be of even greater benefit to the panel in 2020.”
