Career

Cashman first played Gaelic games with the Aghada club. After progressing from the juvenile and underage ranks, he went on to win a number of East Cork titles as a dual player. He simultaneously enjoyed success as a schoolboy with St. Colman's College by winning an All-Ireland Colleges Championship in 1977. Cashman also earned selection on the Imokilly divisional hurling team before transferring to the St Finbarr's club in 1982. He won a Cork SHC title in his debut season before claiming further titles in 1984 and 1988.[1] Cashman first came to prominence on the inter-county scene as a member of the Cork minor hurling team that won consecutive All-Ireland MHC titles in 1978 and 1979.[2] His tenure with the under-21 side also yielded success after beating Galway in the 1982 All-Ireland under-21 final.[3] After playing in a number of National League games for the senior team earlier in the decade, Cashman made his Munster SHC debut in 1989.[4]
