Sporting legends Niall Quinn and Alan Quinlan are members of a new high-profile Commercial Board set up by Tipperary GAA.

The newly established committee, which will be chaired by Declan Kelly, Chairman and CEO of the Premier County’s official sponsor Teneo, will support the ongoing fundraising efforts of the County Board.

One of the main tasks being undertaken by the Board is a fundraising effort to secure the funds needed to support the ongoing strategic development of the Tipperary senior hurling team under Liam Sheedy’s management.

Initially, the Commercial Board will consist of the following:

Declan Kelly, Chairman and CEO of Teneo (Chairperson)
Brendan Murphy, Vice Chairman of Teneo Ireland
Louis Fitzgerald, Owner of the Louis Fitzgerald Group
Alan Quinlan, Sports Commentator & Former Professional Rugby Player
Declan O’Rourke, General Manager of AIG Ireland
John Tierney, Chairman of the Corporate Sub Committee of Tipperary Supporters Club
Mick O’Keeffe, CEO of Teneo Ireland
Niall Quinn, Businessman and former Professional Footballer
Michael Madden, Chairman of Teneo Capital Advisory
Simon Scroope, Head of AIB Corporate Banking

The first event being organised by the Commercial Board, in association with Tipperary GAA’s official sponsor Teneo, will be a celebration of Tipperary Hurling in the Mansion House, Dublin, on April 10th. 

The dinner will be a celebration of the 27 All Ireland Hurling Championships won by Tipperary throughout the years, with eight living captains being honoured on the night. There will also be several special guests in attendance on the night including Pat Shortt and Ireland rugby legend and 2009 Grand Slam winning Captain Brian O’Driscoll.

At the event there will be a panel discussion with the living All Ireland winning captains and an interview with Tipperary Hurling Manager Liam Sheedy, as well as some interaction with the other special guests and sporting greats in attendance that will be announced before the event.
