New Galway senior hurling manager Henry Shefflin has added Kevin Lally and Damien Joyce to his backroom team. 

They join Richie O'Neill, who was confirmed as a coach when Shefflin was revealed as Shane O'Neill's successor last month.

Joyce is a former Galway captain, leading the Tribesmen during the 2011 campaign when they reached the quarter-finals of the All Ireland Hurling Championship. More recently, he was part of the Galway coaching staff under All Ireland-winning manager Micheál Donoghue.

Lally, meanwhile, has coached St. Thomas' to three consecutive Galway senior hurling titles in 2018, 2019 and 2020. He was also a coach on the Minor hurling staff in their All Ireland-winning year of 2020, and helped them reach another final in 2021.

Galway's selection committee have also recommended Brian Hanley to the role of U20 Hurling manager on a three-year term.

Hanley guided the Galway minors to All Ireland success in both 2019 and 2020.
