Donnacha Walsh
Donnchadh Walsh is an Irish Gaelic footballer. He plays his football with the Cromane club, the Mid Kerry divisional side and the Kerry county panel.
Walsh is a midfielder and forward. He was described as a 'star' and a 'teen sensation' for Kerry in the All-Ireland Minor Football Championship.[1] He won the Munster Minor Football Championship with Kerry in 2001 [2] and 2002.[3]
He was first selected for the senior squad in 2003.[1] Despite his status as a highly promising player,[3] Walsh did not make the breakthrough to All-Ireland Senior Football Championship football with Kerry until 2008. However, he was being tipped to do following an excellent 2007 season in the Kerry Senior Football Championship with Mid Kerry. He was also given his chance in the National Football League 2008.[4] His first Munster Senior Football Championship game came in the final of July 2008. Walsh started and scored 1-1, but Cork defeated Kerry with a second-half comeback.
