Hockey Codes

Bertie Óg Murphy, born on 16 October 1954 in Glanmire, County Cork, is an Irish former hurling manager and former player who enjoyed a successful career as a right wing-forward with the Cork senior team. Introduced to hurling by his father, the long-serving secretary of the local club team, he came to prominence at underage level with the Sarsfields club, later joining its senior team. He joined the Cork minor team at seventeen, was an All-Ireland runner-up in that grade and with the under-21 team, and made his senior debut during the 1975 to 76 league. He played a key role for Cork in attack, winning two All-Ireland medals and four Munster medals and finishing as an All-Ireland runner-up twice, with 11 championship appearances before retiring after the 1984 championship. As a coach he guided the Cork under-21 team to back-to-back All-Ireland titles.
