Our guest is the Team of the Millennium pick Brian Whelahan, who is considered by many to be one of the greatest hurlers to have graced our GAA fields.
Brian’s hurling career can be defined by his rivalry with Clare, from captaining Offaly to his second All-Ireland Minor Hurling title against Clare in 1989 to the five legendary games against Clare and Clarecastle in 1998. An era considered the golden age of hurling.
Brian talks about growing up in Birr, where everything revolved around hurling and how a culture of winning from school and club, including Feile, forged teams for the ages.
Every Tuesday well known Irish stars will share memories from their early sporting careers and reflect on the defining moments from playing Minor and how that shaped them both on and off the pitch.
