Bill Dillon (footballer)

Football Codes

Bill Dillon (1 June 1905 to 23 May 1979) was an Irish sportsperson who played Gaelic football with his local club Dingle and was a member of the Kerry senior inter-county team from 1937 until 1941. He captained Kerry to a third consecutive All-Ireland title in 1941. The English Wikipedia article about him is very short and lists no other honours, so this entry records only his club, his Kerry years and the captaincy of the 1941 team, and it leaves any further career detail for a later source.
