Career
[edit]Scroope first came to hurling prominence as a schoolboy with Nenagh CBS in the Harty Cup before later lining out with NUI Galway in the Fitzgibbon Cup.[1][2] He simultaneously progressed through the various grades at club level and was a member of the Burgess team that won the Tipperary IHC title in 2005. Scroope first appeared on the inter-county scene as a member of the Tipperary minor hurling team that lost the 2002 All-Ireland minor final to Kilkenny.[3] He progressed onto the under-21 grade where he once again lost out to Kilkenny in the 2004 All-Ireland under-21 final.[4] After one year with the intermediate team, Scroope was drafted onto the Tipperary senior hurling team in 2004.[5] He remained on and off the team over the following five seasons and won a Munster Championship medal as a member of the extended panel in 2009.
