Coaching Career
In 1957 Maher joined the Kilkenny senior hurling team as coach. Over the next twenty-one years he would preside over an era which saw the county win fourteen Leinster titles and seven All-Ireland titles. In 1983 he immediately became involved in the local hurling scene in Mullinavat. It came as no surprise to anybody that, in 1984, Mullinavat won the Junior Championship, their first success in 45 years, and in 1985, won the Special Junior B Championship.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
