Gerard Manley (born 13 January 1968) is an Irish former hurler and Gaelic footballer. At club level he played with Inniscarra, Midleton and Muskerry and was also a member of the Cork senior hurling team.[1]

Playing career

[edit | edit source]

Manley first played Gaelic football and hurling with the Inniscarra club. He won a Mid Cork JAFC title with the club in 1989, while he also lined out with the Muskerry divisional team as a dual player. Manley first appeared on the inter-county scene as a member of the Cork minor team that won the 1985 All-Ireland MHC title.[2] He progressed onto the under-21 team and was at centre-forward on the team that beat Kilkenny in the 1988 All-Ireland Under-21 HC final.[3] Manley made his senior team debut against Waterford during the 1987–88 league; however, it took a number of years before he established himself on the team. In the meantime, he won an All-Ireland JFC with the Cork junior football team in 1990.[4] Manley won a Munster SHC in 1992; however, Cork lost the subsequent All-Ireland SHC final to Kilkenny. He added a National League title to his collection in 1993.[5] Manley ended his club career as a goalkeeper with Midleton.

Managerial career

[edit | edit source]

Manley first became involved in team management and coaching at various level with Midleton. He was a selector with the Cork under-21 hurling team that was beaten by Tipperary in the 2007 All-Ireland MHC final.[contradictory] Manley subsequently spent two years as manager of the team.[6] He later took charge of a number of club sides, including Kilbree and Slieve Bloom.[7][8]

In December 2023, Manley was announced as the manager of the Cork senior camogie team. He had roles with the side under previous manager, Matthew Twomey, and was appointed for a two-year term, for the 2024 and 2025 seasons.
