Football Codes

Paddy McConigley is an Irish Gaelic footballer from Fanad in County Donegal who played at senior inter-county level for Donegal after an earlier spell with the London county team. He captained the Donegal minor team and led the under-21 side for two of the three years he spent with it, and he made his senior National Football League debut as a substitute against Mayo in 2007 before starting the league final against the same opponents. His inter-county career ended later that year when he was shot in the eye on a team trip and blinded. At club level he played for Gaeil Fhánada, winning the Donegal Intermediate Football Championship in 2009 and an All-Ireland Gaeltacht title in 2012, and after moving to Kilkenny he played for The Railyard Football Club, where he won two Kilkenny Senior Football Championship titles, in 2015 and 2016.
