Ten-time All-Ireland winning Cork ladies football manager Eamonn Ryan has passed away.
Cork LGFA posted on social media that Ryan had “passed on to his eternal rest this afternoon after an illness bravely fought”.
The Watergrasshill native spent 12 seasons in charge of the Cork senior ladies football team, winning 10 All-Irelands, 10 Munster championships, and nine National League titles during this time.
Ryan had previously served as manager of the Cork men’s senior football team in the early eighties. After finishing his tenure with the Cork ladies in late 2015, he once again got involved with the men’s senior set-up, taking up a backroom role in Peadar Healy’s management team.
