Michael C. Minogue (1936 – 13 December 2024) was an Irish hurling coach and player. At club level he played with Roscrea and at inter-county level he played with the Tipperary senior hurling team. Minogue also served as a manager, coach and selector with various club and inter-county teams.
Minogue played his club hurling with Roscrea at a time when the club had a number of successes. He won five Tipperary SHC medals in a six-years period between 1968 and 1973. Minogue was at midfield when Roscrea won the Munster Club SHC title in 1970, before winning an All-Ireland Club SHC medal in 1971 following Roscrea's 4–05 to 2–05 defeat of St Rynagh's in the final.[1][2] At inter-county level, he made a number of appearances for the Tipperary senior hurling team in the National Hurling League between 1958 and 1961.[3]
Management career
Minogue began his coaching career at club level with Moneygall and guided them to their first ever Tipperary SHC title in 1975.[4] At inter-county level, he coached Tipperary's minor team to the All-Ireland MHC title in 1976.[5] This began a 15-year association with Tipperary at all levels. At senior level, Minogue was part of the selection panel on a number of occasions, including for Tipperary's National Hurling League success in 1979. He was also part of five All-Ireland U21HC-winning management teams between 1979 and 1989.[6][7]
