Former Olympic athlete and World Indoor champion Derval O'Rourke has taken up the role of player development manager with Munster.
The position is run by the Irish Rugby Union Players Association, the representative body for professional rugby players in Ireland.
O'Rourke, who met with the Munster squad for the first time on Monday, will be based in Cork – where the 33-year-old lives – and also in Limerick.
The IRUPA employ four player development managers, one in each of the four provinces, and O'Rourke's position in Munster was previously held by former international player Marcus Horan.
O'Rourke retired from competitive athletics in June after a 14-year international career during which she won two European championship silver medals in the 100 metres hurdles, and also a World Indoor title in the 60m hurdles in 2006.
O'Rourke also competed at three Olympic Games, in 2004 in Athens, Beijing 2008 and London 2012.
The IRUPA player development managers, who work part-time, are responsible for a range of player issues including personal development, career advice and general player well-being.
