The 2022 Electric Ireland GAA Minor Star Hurling Team of the Year and the Electric Ireland Minor Star Hurling Player of the Year have been unveiled.

The Electric Ireland campaign supporting this year’s tournaments looked back on the Minor Moments that shape players’ lives and the 2022 Championship saw a season filled with talent and strong competition.

The Team of the Year features four players from All-Ireland champions, Tipperary, while the All-Ireland finalists, Offaly, also have four players represented.

Galway have three representatives while both Laois and Clare each have two players on this year’s team.

This provides a wider spread than is often seen at Senior level and that can only be a positive for the sport.

Adam Screeney, a member of the Offaly Minor Hurling team has been announced as the 2022 Electric Ireland GAA Minor Star Hurling Player of the Year.

The Kilcormac-Killoughey forward scored five goals and 51 points during Offaly’s journey to the final.

The team was selected by a panel of GAA experts and was determined in part by Electric Ireland’s ‘Minor Moments of the Week’ initiative on Twitter via @ElectricIreland and #GAAThisIsMajor.

“Each member of the team has contributed enormously to what has been an outstanding season of Minor hurling,” said Sarah Sharkey, Brand, PR and Sponsorship Manager at Electric Ireland.

“We would also like to give a special mention to the Electric Ireland Minor Hurling Player of the Year, Adam Screeney, who lit up this year’s championship with his incredible scoring displays for Offaly, during their exciting journey to the final.”

“I am delighted to, once again, have the opportunity to extend my congratulations to the Electric Ireland GAA Minor Hurling Team of the Year, with a special mention for Adam Screeney, the well-deserved recipient of the Electric Ireland GAA Minor Hurling Player of the Year,” added GAA President Larry McCarthy.

“Fans turned out in large numbers to support our Minor players this season and we were fortunate to see the skills of these outstanding players. I look forward to watching the next chapter of their playing careers.”

The Electric Ireland GAA Minor Star Football Team of the Year and Football Player of the Year will be unveiled on Tuesday, 16 August.
