Playing career
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-year period between 1968 and 1973. Rowland was team captain when Roscrea won the Munster Club SHC title in 1969, before retaining the title in 1970.[1] He won an All-Ireland Club SHC medal in 1971 following Roscrea's 4–05 to 2–05 defeat of St Rynagh's in the final.[2][3]
At inter-county level, Rowland never played for Tipperary at underage levels but joined the senior team following club success with Roscrea. He won a National League–Munster SHC double in 1968 before being a substitute on the team beaten by Wexford in that year's All-Ireland final.[4][5]
Coaching career
In retirement from playing, Rowland remained involved with the Roscrea club. He was team manager when Moycarkey–Borris beat Roscrea by 2–12 to 0–11 in the 1982 final.
