Martin Fogarty

Martin Fogarty is an Irish hurling coach and former player, whom the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) named as its first National Hurling Development manager in June 2016, a role he filled from the end of that August.[1][2][3] The role, according to Fogarty, gave him "free rein to develop hurling across 32 counties as I think best"[4] and particular intentions to develop the sport in Antrim, Carlow, Laois, Offaly and Westmeath.[5] His workplace would be his home as well as Croke Park.[6]

Fogarty played for the Erin's Own club and was also involved in coaching, management and officiating.[4][6] He was in charge of the Kilkenny under-21 team that won the 2003 and 2004 All-Ireland Under-21 Hurling Championships. He served as a selector under Brian Cody's management between 2005 and 2013, a time when Kilkenny won six All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championships.[1]

Fogarty is a teacher by profession.[7] He spent 35 years as a school principal and 38 years in total in the teaching profession.[6] He taught until he took over the role of National Hurling Development manager.[4] Then he retired.[6]

Married to Angela, he has two sons and a daughter.[4] His sons Conor and Damien have played hurling at senior level for Kilkenny, something which Fogarty himself did not.[4][6] He is teetotal.[4]
