Cathal Casey is one of the most popular and richest Hurler who was born on September 4, 1967 in Ballynoe, Ballynoe, Ireland. Cathal Casey (born 4 September 1967) is an Irish retired hurler who played as a right wing- back for the Cork senior team.
Born in Ballynoe, County Cork, Casey first arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of seventeen when he first linked up with the Cork minor team before later joining the under-21 side. He joined the senior panel during the 1986 championship. Casey subsequently became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won one All-Ireland medal, two Munster medal and one National Hurling League medal. He was an All-Ireland runner-up on one occasion.
Three years later Casey was at right wing-back on the Cork under-21 team. He won a Munster medal that year following a 4-12 to 1-7 defeat of Limerick. Cork subsequently faced Kilkenny in the All-Ireland decider on 11 September 1988. Played in St. Brendan’s Park, Birr to commemorate the centenary of the very first senior All-Ireland final being played there, Cork triumphed by 4-12 to 1-5, with Casey winning an All-Ireland Under-21 Hurling Championship medal.
Casey was at midfield once again in 1988 as UCC were bidding for an eighth successive Fitzgibbon Cup title. University College Galway provided the opposition, however, a comfortable 1-14 to 1-3 victory gave Casey a second successive winners’ medal.
Casey was a member of the extended panel as Cork faced Galway in the All- Ireland decider on 7 September 1986. The men from the west were the red-hot favourites against a Cork team in decline, however, on the day a different story unfolded. Four Cork goals, one from John Fenton, two from Tomás Mulcahy and one from Kevin Hennessy, stymied the Galway attack and helped the Rebels to a 4–13 to 2–15 victory.
