DJ Carey will join Brian Cody on the sidelines as the Kilkenny boss was ratified for his 22nd year in charge at a county board meeting. Carey, who has managed Kilkenny's U20 hurlers, minor footballers, and IT Carlow's Fitzgibbon team, replaces Derek Lyng as a selector. Michael Comerford has been named as strength and conditioning coach, replacing Michael Dempsey, who joined Cody's management team in 2005. Lyng, meanwhile, takes over from Carey as manager of Kilkenny's U20 team, with Peter Barry and Michael Rice on board as his selectors. The team coach will be JJ Grace, while Dan O’Neill and Paddy McConigley will be team selectors.
