Henry Shefflin,Leinster Senior Hurling Championship

Manager Henry Shefflin has now confirmed that the powerful 6’5” forward is on board.

Galway hurlers have received a timely boost with Johnny Glynn back in the squad for the entire Championship. The 30-year old, a key figure in Galway’s 2017 All-Ireland triumph, has not played for the Tribesmen since 2019 but was invited back for a training stint with them last month following big displays when he came home to play for Ardrahan in last year’s county championship.

Glynn has not played for Galway since they were knocked out of the 2019 Leinster championship but transferred back to his native club last year and his performances for Ardrahan did not go unnoticed by Shefflin and his management. Glynn continued to make the trips across the Atlantic in 2018 and in 2019, often training with the New York footballers to maintain his fitness levels.

His return to play for Ardrahan was seen out of loyalty and wanting to give at least one year to his native club rather than try to revive his inter-county career, but now he’s going to be back for Galway in the 2024 championship and Shefflin is grateful to Glynn for the commitment he is making.
