Noel Lucey

Football Codes

Noel Lucey (Jeremiah Noel Lucey, 1939 to 19 July 2021) was an Irish Gaelic footballer born at Caragh Lake in County Kerry. He began with the Glenbeigh-Glencar club before transferring to Laune Rangers, and he won a County Championship title with the divisional side Mid Kerry in 1967. Having never played minor football for Kerry, he was first included on the Kerry senior football team in tournament games in early 1962, and he ended that season with an All-Ireland Championship title after lining out at centre-back in the final defeat of Roscommon. His brother Jimmy Lucey played in the same final, while a third brother, Vincent Lucey, played in the 1965 All-Ireland final defeat by Galway. His inter-county career lasted only two seasons, but in that time he also collected a National League title. He died in Glenflesk, County Kerry, on 19 July 2021.
