Football Codes

John Lack O'Sullivan (1976 to 19 November 2002) was an Irish player of two football codes, Gaelic football and Australian rules football. He was a clubman with Adrigole GFC in County Cork and one of the key players in the side that won the Cork Junior Football Championship in 2002, but he died in November of that year, from a cardiac condition while swimming, before the final was played. He also played for his divisional side Beara, which won the Cork Under-21 Football Championship in 1997, and he represented Cork at underage level. In Australian rules football he played for the Ireland national team that won the 2002 Australian Football International Cup, and he kicked a goal in the final against Papua New Guinea. The Australian Rules Football League of Ireland Premiership Trophy is named in his honour.
