Ken McGrath is to become the next Waterford under-20 hurling manager.
McGrath will front a Waterford dream-team management ticket that includes Dan Shanahan, Kevin Moran and Andy Moloney.
They will be put forward for ratification on a two-year term at the next meeting of the Waterford County Board.

It is hoped former Waterford captain McGrath can improve the fortunes of the county at the under-20 grade. Davy Fitzgerald is to remain on as senior hurling manager for 2024.
