Eddie Brady

Eddie Brady outlines the history of Cavan football from the county's participation in its first All-Ireland Senior Football Final in 1928. He describes the successes and failures of both the inter-county teams and the club football teams. He discusses in detail the Cavan team's historic participation in the 1947 All-Ireland Senior Football Final which was held in the Polo Grounds in New York. He also ponders his own administration roles within the organisation, including treasurer and PRO of the football county board, as well as several administrative roles within the hurling and camogie bodies. In addition, Eddie recalls the challenges of refereeing camogie matches, with particular reference to an incident involving the gender of a player being called into question.
