On the coaching side of things, Egan stressed the importance of looking outside the coaching bubble. Like the great hurling apostle Paudie Butler has so often preached, Egan pointed out how essential getting the correct-sized hurley for juvenile players is. As principal, Egan has been able to ensure that is followed in his school but the emphasis on hurling has altered too. On Twitter, Egan himself has offered to send on coaching manuals to those interested in keeping themselves occupied. In this time of great uncertainty, one thing is certain: Egan and Kiladangan will be keeping themselves busy.
