Antrim Chairman Jim Murray has confirmed that Jerry Wallace has re joined the Antrim hurling management team in a selector role. Jerry was on the sideline last Friday when Antrim played out a 2.16 to 2.14 defeat to Wexford in a challenge match.
Jim Murray said,
"We were disappointed when Jerry resigned last week, he brought a lot to the Antrim set up since January. When he made himself available to Jim and the managerial set up the response was very positive. Jerry knows the players very well and it would be foolish not to capitalise on the that insight and experience.
"You can probably say that we have travelled a strange road over the last ten days or so, but the end result is a managerial team, led by Jim Nelson, which is totally focussed on the upcoming games.
"The draw for the football qualifiers is tomorrow morning and we will know then what games our senior teams have coming up. I urge everyone to get behind the teams now and show your support for Antrim over the coming weeks. Both squads are training at full tilt and they deserve support."
