Tipperary GAA have confirmed some high-profile names as managers for their minor and U20 hurling and football sides for 2021.
Former Premier hurler James Woodlock, who missed the All-Ireland winning 2010 season due to a broken leg, takes over the minor team in the county. The Drom-Inch club man, who has been involved in Tipp underage teams for several years since his intercounty retirement in 2015, has been handed a three-year term.
Liam Sheedy and John Devane remain in charge of the senior and U20 teams respectively.
In football, former Dublin star Paddy Christie will take up the role as U20 boss. The Ballymun native, who has been part of David Power's senior backroom team over the last year, will combine the two positions.
He takes the reins from former Waterford and Tipp senior boss Tom McGlinchey.
