Derry Hayes
Derry Hayes (c. 1928 – March 2005) was an Irish sportsperson who played hurling with the Cork senior inter-county team in the 1950s.
Hayes first came to prominence with the Cork senior hurlers in the early mid-1950s. He won his first Munster title as a half-back in 1953. Lyons later collected his first All-Ireland medal following Cork’s defeat of Galway in one of the dirtiest All-Ireland finals ever. In 1954 Cork made it three-in-a-row by capturing another set of Munster and All-Ireland titles. Once again Lyons played a key role in the half-back line and added a second Munster and All-Ireland medal to his collection.
