Former Galway Minor Hurler and 2017 All-Ireland Senior winning captain David Burke, launched the 2026 Electric Ireland GAA All-Ireland Minor Championships.

This summer, Electric Ireland are using their social channels to spotlight players from across the Championships, in recognition of the major impact that playing Minor can have on young people’s future successes, on and off the field.

Electric Ireland are pairing up former Minor Legends with current players to give the ultimate insight into the last 15 years of Minor.

David spoke to John Mulligan at the launch media day on Wednesday.

They looked at the Minor Championship so far and also looked forward to Sunday's All-Ireland U20 Final and the upcoming Leinster Senior Final.
