Career
Twomey first came to sporting prominence as a schoolboy with Presentation Brothers College. A family connection resulted in his club career beginning with Kilshannig in North Cork; however, he later lined out as a dual player with St Finbarr's.[2] Twomey captained the St Finbarr's minor hurling team to win the Premier Minor Hurling Championship in 2020, defeating Sarsfields in the decider. He was part of the extended panel that won the Premier SFC title in 2021, before winning a Premier SHC title in 2022.[3][4]
By this stage Twomey had made an impression at inter-county level as a member of the Cork minor hurling team during the Munster MHCs in 2018 and 2019.[5] He later won consecutive All-Ireland U20HC titles with the under-20 team.[6][7] Twomey's performances in this grade earned a call-up to the senior team training panel in December 2021.[8] He made his Munster SHC debut in a 3-25 to 1-30 defeat by Limerick in 2023.[9]
