Dillon Quirke RIP.

GAA President Larry McCarthy has offered his sympathies to the family and friends of Dillon Quirke after his sudden passing on Friday night.

The underage All-Ireland medal winner with Tipperary collapsed before half time in Clonoulty Rossmore’s senior hurling championship clash with Kilruane McDonagh’s at FBD Semple Stadium.

The GAA President said: “There is a ​huge sense of ​shock across the GAA Community at the tragic loss of Dillon who had already achieved so much in his young life.

“He was a young man in his prime with so much potential and promise and on behalf of the GAA family I would like to extend my sympathies to Dillon’s ​father and mother, Dan and Hazel, and his sisters, Shannon and Kellie, at what is an unimaginably difficult time.”
