the Co. Final.
Born
in Newtonshandrum Co. Cork (the home of hurling?) Brian
began playing with Dr. Crokes in 1995 when his parents
moved to Killarney. Newtonshandrum`s loss is definitely

of Con Clifford. Con gave lifetime of service to the
Black & Amber winning the first of his 10 O’Donoghue Cup
medals in 1956, being captain in 1962. He also won 2
Munster medals with Kerry, Minor 1957, Junior 1961. When
his playing day ended he continued to serve the club in
an administrative capacity, he was Chairman in
1972&1973. When the Club Book “Crokes Gaelic Century”
was published in 1986 Con had researched and written a
number of the articles.
Coming from
a family with a long and proud involvement with Dr.
Crokes from it’s foundation in 1886 his grandson
Risteard is the 6th generation of the family
to wear the club colours.
A squash
enthusiast for many years he was the winner of the
Squash award at the inaugural Killarney Sports Stars
Awards
Recently
retired as an ambulance driver his latest passion was
golf and he was eagerly looking forward to testing his
skills on the green sward of the Kerry Courses with our
golf society.

offer our sincere condolences.

Hurler of the Year
The Hurler of the year is none
other than a Waterford man Tom Murphy. Tom a native of
Lismore. an industrial engineer came to “Beauty’s Home”
in 1999 to work as
Production Manager in Killarney Plastics.
He joined Dr Crokes in 2000. A
defender, he played with a very successful underage
Lismore team that won U10, U12, U14, U16, minor and U21
Waterford County Championships. He also holds All
Ireland medals at primary school level and with Lismore
CBS.
Unfortunately a very promising career was interrupted
when he severed his
cruciate ligament which sidelined him for a year. On
moving to Killarney he
thought this would be the end of his career but on
persuasion he readily committed himself to Dr. Crokes.
He has been a regular on our team since his arrival and
was part of the County Intermediate winning team in 2001
when Dr. Crokes defeated Kilgarvan.
Having played at centre back that
year he unfortunately missed the final due to a broken
collarbone.
His commitment to the club was
highlighted when he went straight from the plane on
arriving home from his honeymoon to play a starring role
at corner back in our County
League Div II win over Kilmoyley in 2004, which went to
extra time.
He played quiet superbly this year
when moved to centre back even when those around him
were flagging and winning was not attainable. His
tenacity, positional sense and natural left handed
striking marks him out as a special player.
A genial man who needs no
motivation and whose attendance at training and efforts
on the field of play are exemplary,
Tom at 32 years age has many more
years to give to the Dr Crokes
A most deserving winner of the Player of the Year award,
may we wish him and his lovely wife Elaine every best
wishes for the future.
Enda Ward Named as Supporter of
the Year. The affable Garda from Athlone has been
named as Supporter of the Year 2005. Enda a former
player with the club has been an avid supporter of Dr.
Crokes since arriving in Killarney in 1976. Transferred
to “Heavens Reflects” all of 30 years ago Enda has also
served in Abbeyfeale, Castleisland, Ardfert, & presently
in Beaufort.
Married to Killarney girl
Celine(nee Lyne) they have2 boys Rory & Kieran. Enda is
the holder of 3 Co. Championships won with his native
club Athlone, he was a member of the Athlone team
defeated by Portlaoise team in 1972 Leinster Final. he
represented Westmeath at inter county level for 5 years.
Quite adapt at other codes he
played soccer with Athlone Town and won representative
honors with Connacht in rugby. He lined out with Dr.
Crokes for a number of years many will remember him as a
teak tough corner back. Presently and for a considerable
period of time he has been actively involved in Dr.
Crokes Juvenile Section.
Always one who actively seeks out
the fixtures list at all levels he attends a large
amount of games during the season.
A person well capable of discussing
the merits of individual players, and always one who is
positive and praiseworthy in his observations.
Enda you are a tremendous choice as
Supporter of the Year.

Kieran
O’Leary named as Young Player of the Year
This year for
the 1st time Dr. Crokes are honoring a young player who
will be presented with Micheal (Haulie) Keogh Memorial Cup. The
inaugural recipient is Kieran O’Leary. The 18year old Woodlawn Park
lad has achieved a lot in a relatively short career. His tally of
5-05 in the 2005 Kerry Co. Senior Championship bears testament to
his talents.
The holder of
Munster Minor medal with Kerry in 2004 he also holds 2 Senior Co.
League, 2 Minor Co. League, Munster Senior League, O’Donoghue Cup,
O`Sullivan Cup, U21, Minor, U16 East Kerry medals along with Munster
U16 medal with Kerry South. 2 Dunlop Cup, 2 Russell Cup,2 O`Sullivan
Cup with St. Brendan’s.
Captain of the
2005 Dr. Crokes Minor team of which his younger brother David was
on the panel and other brother Jonathan was the mascot. Kieran
,made his Senior debut for Dr. Crokes in that never to be forgotten
2004 Co. League Final v Austin Stacks, deep into extra time Dr.
Crokes Manager Pat O`Shea threw caution to the wind and introduced
Kieran, his judgment was quickly rewarded when Kieran scored the all
important goal that ensured victory for his club. He has also had
his share of major disappointments losing Minor All Ireland in 2004,
Munster Minor Championship, and Minor & Senior Co. Finals in 2005.
The eldest of 3
boys of John & Joan, Kieran is currently a student at IT Tralee,
from a young age he was identified by shrewd judges within the Dr.
Crokes Club as a precocious talent, one who could scale the heights
in Gaelic Football. They were not alone, as Kerry Manager Jack
O’Connor called him on to the Kerry panel and he has played 3 games
in the McGrath Cup and was introduced as a sub in the National
League Game v Mayo on Sat. last.
For one who will
not turn 19years until July this is a marvelous achievement and I
have no doubt that where Gaelic Football will be spoken of in the
not too distant future the name of Kieran O’Leary will be to the
fore.
Kieran
congratulations on your selection, an honor richly deserved.
Jim Connelly
Club Person of the Year
Galway man Jim
Connelly has been chosen as Club Person of the Year, Jim a native of
Glenamaddy has been involved with Dr. Crokes Club since1978. He has
served the club in a multiciplicity of roles during that time, no
year has gone by that Jim was not involved as selector on some team
or other be it Juvenile, Minor, U21, Junior. Quietly spoken, an
extremely good judge of a footballer his opinion are regularly
sought out in “Becketts Corner”. A large seller of our weekly Lotto
Tickets, no task is beyond Jim always one of the first to put his
shoulder to the wheel for the overall good of the club.
Married to
fellow Galway native Kathleen,( former Chairperson of our Social
Club) they have 3 grown up children, Maurina, Siobhan, and Brian,
and four grand children Timmy & Seodhna O’Donoghue, Clodagh & Aoibhe
Brennan. Jim began playing his club football with St. Pats his local
club until he emigrated to England throwing in his lot with St.
Dympnas in Luton. In 1964 he moved to New York where he joined the
Cork Club , he continued to assist them until he returned to Ireland
in 1977.This writer has it on fairly good authority that he was a
full-back of the traditional style(though shalt not past mould). A
raconteur and ball- hopper of note, blessed with a hearty laugh,
quite capable of giving a bar of a song when called upon and has
been known to raise a glass or two in his time.
Jim, you are a
worthy recipient of Club Person of the Year.
Next week the
selection of Player of the year, supporter of the year , and hurler
of the year will be announced. All awards will be presented at the
Annual Social.

The AGM of Dr.
Crokes G.A.A. Club was held on Jan. 24th. Prior to the
AGM an EGM took place to ratify the Club Constitution & the Code of
Best Practice. Chairman Patrick O`Sullivan in a wide ranging address
stated that the highlight of the year was the official opening of
the clubhouse dedicated to the memory of Martin Beckett R.I.P. He
congratulated all teams for their efforts during the season
especially those successful in bringing home silverware, he
commiserated with the Minors & Seniors on losing co. finals, and
congratulated South Kerry who were the victors on both occasions. He
congratulated the Senior team on retaining Div. 1 Co. League the
Minors on winning Co. League and East Kerry league & championship
and U16`s who swept the boards. He congratulated Eoin Brosnan, Colm
Cooper, & Kieran Cremin on winning Munster Championship Medals.
He paid tribute
to the 2 retiring officers Vice-chairman Harry O`Neill, & P.R.O.
Richard Clancy for the tremendous work they have done for the club
over a considerable period of time. He thanked Uhlsport for coming
on board as the main sponsor of the club and remarked on the high
quality of casual gear that is now available for purchase by club
members. He was wholesome in his praise for the business community
of Killarney who gave so generously for the co. final training fund
appeal. He sympathized with those who lost loved ones during the
year.
In conclusion he
thanked his fellow officers, team mentors, lotto sellers, and all
club members for their co-operation during the year and wished
everyone success in 2006.
In a detailed
and comprehensive document Hon. Sec. Tracey O`Shea outlined all
activities that occurred during the year, she congratulated Eoin
Brosnan & Colm Cooper on selection on Compromise Rules Team that
visited Australia & Colm on his selection on the All Stars, Grainne
O’Malley on her nomination as a Lady All Star, and all the other
players who wore the county jersey with pride while not being on
successful teams.
Joint Treas. Ms.
Deirdre Cremin & Moss Harmon were complimented on producing a very
detailed financial report. In the age we are now living in it takes
a staggering amount of money to run a club of the size of Dr.
Crokes. The Golf Society & Finance Committee were thanked for the
tremendous effort during the year in organizing two very successful
fund raisers which helped enormously to offset the debt on the
current development. Mike Buckley on behalf of the finance committee
