Career

Frend first played hurling at juvenile and underage levels with the Toomevara club, winning numerous championship titles from under-12 up to under-21 level. He later won three successive Tipperary SHC medals from 1992 to 1994.[1] The second of these victories was later converted into a Munster Club SHC title, before later losing the 1994 All-Ireland club final to Sarsfields.[2][3] Frend was later part of the Toomevara four-in-a-row team from 1998 to 2001.[4][5] He claimed an eighth and final Tipperary SHC medal in 2003.[6]

Frend first appeared on the inter-county scene for Tipperary as a member of the minor team in 1988. He immediately progressed to the under-21 team and was corner-back on the team that beat Offaly to win the All-Ireland U21HC title in 1989.[7] He claimed a second successive Munster U21HC in 1990 and was team captain in 1991.[8]

Following the end of his underage inter-county career, Frend was drafted onto the senior team and made his debut in 1992.[9] He was team captain for the 1994 season and won a National League medal that season.[10] Frend was a non-playing substitute when Tipperary were beaten by Clare in the 1997 All-Ireland final. His inter-county career ended in 1999, by which time he had won a second National League medal.
