Kilkenny manager Derek Lyng
Kilkenny senior hurling manager Derek Lyng has hailed outgoing Cats hurler Conor Fogarty who announced his retirement from inter-county hurling this morning (Tuesday).
"It has been a privilege to have worked alongside Conor whose contributions to Kilkenny hurling have been significant," Kilkenny senior hurling manager Lyng commented.
"His humble attitude demonstrated his strong work ethic and discipline, and he played a pivotal role in Kilkenny’s successes down through the years. Conor will be greatly missed and I wish him all the best as he enters retirement," he continued.
Fogarty joined the Kilkenny senior panel in 2011 at just 20 years old, and over the years has established himself as a key player in the squad winning four All-Ireland titles, nine Leinster titles and five National League titles.
County Board Chairman, PJ Kenny, also paid tribute to Fogarty, stating: "On behalf of Kilkenny GAA, I would like to thank Conor for so many great years in the black and amber. Renowned for his skill, determination, and unwavering commitment to the sport, Conor represented Kilkenny and his club Erin’s Own with pride and led by example.
