He was a firm advocate of the Junior game and during his time as president saw the junior inter-provincial team move to the cusp of great things. Starting with the Ger Dowd coached team in 2008 and culminating in the province’s first ever inter-provincial titles in 2011 and 2012 under Seamus King and Ambrose Conboy.
John Mulligan paid this tribute on FYI Galway on Friday evening and he was joined by Mick Turley of OLBC and a former manager of the Connacht Junior Team, Chief Executive of Connacht Rugby Willie Ruane and President of Connacht Rugby Ann Heneghan.
