Career
Young played Minor Hurling in 2003 and Under 21 Hurling in 2005 and 2006 (in which he was captain) with Tipperary before graduating to the Tipperary Senior Hurling panel in 2010.[1][2][3] He made his National Hurling League debut against Limerick in March 2010.[4] On 3 July 2010, he made his Championship debut against Wexford in the 2010 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship Qualifiers, scoring 3 points from right half back in a man of the match performance.[5]
On 5 September 2010, Young came on as a second-half substitute as Tipperary won their 26th All Ireland title, beating reigning champions Killkenny by 4–17 to 1–18 in the final, preventing Kilkenny from achieving an historic 5-in-a-row; it was Young's first All-Ireland winners medal.[6]
