Liam Cahill

As a result of the under-21 success, Cahill refused to rule himself out of the running for the vacant Tipperary senior hurling manager post stating: "The Tipp senior job never really came into my mind to be honest, but I’m absolutely honoured to be linked to it. We'll see." In spite of this, he remained with the underage set-up, becoming the Tipperary under-20 manager. On 23 July 2019, Cahill guided Tipperary to the inaugural Munster Championship title following a 3-15 to 2-17 defeat of Cork in the final. Both sides met again in the All-Ireland final on 24 August 2019, with Tipperary recording a 5-17 to 1-18 victory and a third successive championship defeat of Cork.

Cahill was ratified as manager of the Waterford senior hurling team on 30 September 2019. His first major action as manager saw him drop Noel Connors and Maurice Shanahan from the panel. This was later followed by the retirement of Michael "Brick" Walsh.

Cahill was appointed manager of the Tipperary under-21 hurling team in November 2017. After being heavily defeated by Cork in the Munster Championship final, Cahill guided Tipperary to an All-Ireland final appearance against the same opposition on 26 August 2018. An injury-time goal from Conor Stakelum secured a 3-13 to 1-16 victory.

Cahill's four-year tenure as Tipperary minor hurling manager ended with a three-point defeat by Cork in 2017.

Cahill remained as manager of the team for a third season in 2016 and guided the team to a second successive Munster Championship title after a 1-24 o 0-10 defeat of Limerick. On 4 September 2016, Cahill's minor team won the All-Ireland title after a 1-21 to 0-17 defeat of Limerick in the final.

Cahill's second season as manager saw him guide Tipperary to the Munster Championship title after a three-point defeat of Limerick. On 6 September 2015, Tipperary suffered a 4-13 to 1-16 defeat by Galway in the All-Ireland final.

In September 2013, Cahill returned to inter-county management when he was appointed manager of the Tipperary minor team. His first season in charge ended with a 1-23 to 0-12 defeat by Clare in the Munster Championship.

On 18 October 2009, Cahill was at right wing-back when Thurles Sarsfields defeated Drom-Inch by 0-14 to 0-05 to win the Tipperary Senior Championship.

Cahill returned to the Tipperary senior panel under Babs Keating during the 2007 National League. Later that season he made his first championship start in four years in a 2-17 to 2-13 defeat of Offaly. Cahill left the panel after Tipperary's exit from the championship.

Cahill first became involved in inter-county management as a selector on Declan Ryan's Tipperary minor hurling management team in 2007. After helping guide the team to the Munster Championship title after a defeat of Cork, Tipperary later beat Cork for a second time that season in the subsequent All-Ireland final.

After being a regular player for Tipperary during the 2003 National League, Cahill subsequently fell out of favour with the management after a poor performance against Clare in the Munster Championship. He left the panel in July 2003.

On 6 May 2001, Cahill won a second National League medal in three years. He was held scoreless and substituted in the 52nd minute in the 1-19 to 0-17 defeat of Clare. Later that season he won a Munster Championship medal after scoring a point in Tipperary's 2-16 to 1-17 defeat of Limerick in the final. On 9 September 2001, Cahill was a non-playing substitute when Tipperary won the All-Ireland title for the first time in a decade after a 2-18 to 2-15 defeat of Galway in the final.

On 16 May 1999, Cahill collected his first silverware at senior level when he won a National Hurling League medal after a 1-14 to 1-10 defeat of Galway in the final.

On 14 September 1997, Cahill came on as a substitute for Michael Cleary in Tipperary's 0-20 to 2-13 All-Ireland final defeat by Clare at Croke Park.

Cahill subsequently joined the Tipperary under-21 team. After making his first appearance in that grade on 19 June 1996 in a 0-16 to 0-10 defeat of Limerick, he played for three unsuccessful seasons.

Cahill made his senior debut for Tipperary on 18 February 1996, replacing Aidan Ryan in a National Hurling League defeat of Cork at Páirc Uí Rinn. On 2 June 1996, he made his first Munster Championship appearance and scored 1-02 in a three-point defeat of Waterford. Cahill finished the championship with 3-10 and was named in the right corner-forward position on the All-Star team.

After surrendering the championship title the following year, Cahill was appointed captain of the team for Tipperary's unsuccessful championship campaign in 1995.

Cahill joined the Ballingarry club at a young age and played in all grades at juvenile and underage levels. He enjoyed championship success in the minor grade, winning back-to-back championship medals in 1994 and 1995. As a member of the Ballingarry senior hurling team, Cahill won South Tipperary Championship medals in 1996, 1998 and 2001. Cahill transferred to the Thurles Sarsfields club in 2007.

Cahill first played at inter-county level when he joined the Tipperary minor hurling team as a fifteen-year old. After scoring 1-04 on his debut against Limerick on 7 April 1993, he later won a Munster Championship medal following a 1-12 to 1-09 defeat of Cork in the final.

Cahill first came to prominence as a hurler with Scoil Ruáin in Killenaule. In 1992 he was a member of the school's junior hurling team that won the All-Ireland Vocational Championship after a 3-04 to 2-04 defeat of St. Colman’s Vocational School from Gort.

Liam Cahill (born 13 October 1977) is an Irish hurling manager, former selector and player who is the current manager of the Waterford senior hurling team.
