Seánie Johnston

Football Codes

Seánie Johnston is an Irish Gaelic footballer who played for the Cavan county team and the Cavan Gaels club, and later for Kildare. With Cavan Gaels he won ten Cavan Senior Football Championships between 2001 and 2017, and with Dublin City University he helped win the university's first Sigerson Cup in 2006. In 2012 he moved to a Kildare club so that he could play for the Kildare county team, a transfer restricted under the GAA's Official Guide that was granted after a symbolic appearance in a hurling match for Coill Dubh. He made his Kildare debut as a substitute in an All-Ireland Senior Football Championship qualifier against his native Cavan on 15 July 2012, and he returned to the Cavan senior panel in time for the 2016 Dr McKenna Cup. He has since worked in club management and as a coach.
