Terenure head coach Sean Skehan sees this Saturday’s clash with Clontarf at Lakelands Park being a one-score game
Having been so close, we really didn’t want to leave any stone unturned and we’ve been lucky in that talent has come in
Skehan is also coaching the Terenure College schools senior Cup team. There, he also teaches geography and business, since relocating to Dublin with his wife Aislinn after his time with Glenstal when they won their breakthrough Munster schools cup success in 2018. That followed a losing final the year before.
Helped by playing the bottom four and a rebuilding Cork Con side, Terenure won their first six games by an average winning margin of almost 30 points. Most of the key men in last season’s campaign remained, not least the Clontarf-reared former Leinster, Munster, Nottingham and Leicester backrower Jordan Coughlan, and the hard-carrying, left-footed former Munster centre Peter Sylvester.
The Leinster trio of Marcus Hannon, John McKee and Charlie Ryan also joined, but Ryan sadly retired recently with a knee injury, while not for the first time Hannon and McKee are involved with their province this Saturday. Victory on Saturday will leave Terenure favourites to secure a home semi-final, and they have been unbeaten at Lakelands Park since Clontarf won there 16 months ago.
