Limerick All-Ireland winning S&C coach set for new role with Connacht rugby

Kiely enjoyed huge success during his time with the Limerick hurlers.

MIKEY KIELY HAS made a switch from Ulster Rugby to Connacht where he has been appointed as the provinceโ€™s head of athletic performance.

Kiely played a key role as S&C coach with the Limerick hurlers in the 2020 and 2021 seasons when they claimed All-Ireland glory. 

He joined Ulster last August as athletic performance coach.

Kiely replaces David Howard, who has stepped aside after five years, in Connacht.

    Itโ€™s about as pointless a fight as I can imagine to be honest. Crolla doesnโ€™t even have a puncherโ€™s chance as heโ€™s not a particularly heavy hitter.

    I donโ€™t begrudge him the payday, heโ€™s served his time and seems like a good guy. Mandatory challenger too so heโ€™s arguably earned it.
