Career

edit

Born in Shannon, County Clare, Shanagher was introduced to hurling in his youth. He developed his skills at St. Caimin's Community School while simultaneously enjoying championship successes at underage levels with the Wolfe Tones club. Shanagher subsequently became a regular member of the Wolfe Tones senior team and has won one Munster medal and one championship medal in the intermediate grade.

Shanagher made his début on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he first linked up with the Clare minor team.[1] He enjoyed little success in this grade before later joining the under-21 side. Shanagher made his senior debut during the 2016 league.[2] Since then he has won one National Hurling League medal.[citation needed]
