Star player rejoins Limerick team for new season after four consecutive wins
Limerick hurling is set for an exciting new season with the return of renowned sports psychologist Caroline Currid. Her involvement is expected to provide a significant boost as the team aims to reclaim its dominance in the sport.
Caroline Currid’s Return
Currid’s reinstatement was announced by Limerick’s manager, John Kiely. She previously stepped away after the team’s last All-Ireland win in 2023. Since then, Limerick has struggled to achieve the same level of success.
Notable Achievements
- Helped Limerick secure their first All-Ireland title in 45 years in 2018.
- Assisted Tipperary in winning the All-Ireland title in 2019.
- Contributed to Limerick’s historic four consecutive All-Ireland titles.
In addition to her work with Limerick, Currid supported the Ireland rugby team during their summer tour. She also played a vital role in Maigh Cuilinn’s triumph in the Galway Senior Football Championship.
Impact on the Team
Cairbre Ó Cairealláin, Limerick’s strength and conditioning coach, praised Currid for her ability to connect with the players. He emphasized that her conversations and insights into player well-being significantly contribute to the team’s success.
Ó Cairealláin noted, “A lot of Caroline’s work was those conversations and subtly going about her business.” He highlighted her unique understanding of players’ lives outside of training, which is crucial for their overall performance.
Expectations for the New Season
As Limerick prepares for the upcoming season, the team is hopeful that Currid’s return will reinforce the foundations she helped establish over the years. Her irreplaceable skills are set to guide the players as they strive to regain their championship status.
With the team’s experience and Currid’s expertise, Limerick fans are optimistic about a successful season ahead.
