Hockey Codes

Pádraig 'Padge' Kehoe (27 July 1925 to 2 February 2007) was an Irish hurler who played club hurling with St Aidan's Enniscorthy and inter-county hurling with Wexford in the 1950s and 1960s, and who also played some Gaelic football for the county. He won his first senior county title with the club in 1946 and several more afterwards. For Wexford he won six Leinster championships, three All-Ireland medals and two National Hurling League medals, scoring a goal in the 1956 All-Ireland final against Cork and a goal from a 21-yard free in the 1960 final against Tipperary. He captained the county in 1954 and lined out for Leinster in the Railway Cup without winning a medal. After retiring he stayed involved with Wexford hurling and coached the county to the 1968 All-Ireland title.
