[edit] Early life

Michael Walsh was born in Stradbally, County Waterford in 1983. He was educated locally and from an early age he showed a great interest in Gaelic games. Walsh was educated locally and later attended the Waterford Institute of Technology where he studied Business and Finance. He completed his MA in 2006. While studying here Walsh's hurling skills came to the fore, particularly when he played a key role in the college winning Fitzgibbon Cup titles in 2003, 2004 and 2006.

[edit] Playing career

[edit] Club

Walsh plays his club hurling and football with his local Stradbally team. He has had much success with the club's football team, winning senior county championship medals in 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005. In 2006 Walsh's side were defeated by The Nire in their attempt to win a sixth county title in-a-row. He has twice won the county Waterford footballer of the year award.

[edit] Inter-county

Walsh first made his mark as a Gaelic footballer with the Waterford at minor and under-21. In 2003 he helped his native-county to defeat both Cork and Kerry to win the Munster Under-21 Football Championship. In 2004 Walsh made his debut with the Waterford senior hurling team. He subsequently claimed a Munster title, however, his side were later defeated in the All-Ireland semi-final. The following few years have brought little success for Walsh and Waterford. In 2005 and 2006 Waterford reached the All-Ireland knock-out series via the qualifiers system, however, they were beaten on both occasions by Cork. In 2007 Walsh captained Waterford to their first National Hurling League title since 1963.
