Lee Chin says he plans to return to action with Wexford in 2026. The news is a major boost to a Wexford side which lost a raft of stalwarts at the end of last season, including Matthew O’Hanlon, Diarmuid O’Keeffe and Liam Og McGovern. All Star Chin turns 33 in October and has been troubled by a knee injury, but his form has been as good as ever over the past two seasons. “Well, I'm sitting off in Portugal here now looking out at a golf course and a few lads putting on a green across from me and it looks very appetizing,” said Chin, who made his Wexford hurling championship debut in 2013. “But hey, look, I do plan to go back next year. At this stage in my career, I'll just take it year by year. I was happy how this year went for me - how the body was and how the mind was.” Chin says his decision to play on for Keith Rossiter’s side has nothing to do with helping the squad through a period of transition. “No, it wouldn't be a need,” he said. “It would be what I want to do. Look, Wexford will be there. “It was there before I was there and it'll be there long after I'm gone. I still want to be there to help the cause. I want to be there to try and win. “I want to feel that success again like we did in 2019 (Leinster title). Look, every team is looking for young lads. That's the key to success in any county that's winning. “It's the young lads that are coming through and keeping the competition and the standards high. That's the key. “At the moment, we need more young lads putting their hand up in Wexford. They're there. They are there. We just need to get them their opportunities. “I don't know what's happening this year regarding other lads, but you'd be hoping that everyone will stick together, stay together and try and drive the thing on.”
