I also pointed out the level of coaching that they will get with Limerick would be a hell of a lot better than the level of coaching at junior clubs - being free in to Limerick games is merely an added bonus for those who wish to avail of it!

Maybe some of the teams but there are a few teams at Limerick where that just isn't the case at all and I am a Limerick fan with no connection to any junior team.

True, I generalized. But I can only go on personal experience and I can honestly say that coaching when I played was non-existent. I have spoken at length with two of my nephews who played with teams out in the county before signing with Limerick and they said there was no comparison between the level of coaching they got at their clubs to the level they get at Limerick. I'm sure there are plenty of good coaches around at junior clubs but they're the exception not the rule.

I don't think good coaches are in the majority at Limerick either from what I know of it. There are a few good ones but some of them are really poor.

On the pike defeat:They were up against it really,having to take on a desmond league selection:hat:

In that case Killorglin must be a crack outfit - they only lost to Limerick 2-0!:p
