Football Codes

Tom Spillane (born 1962) is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for the Templenoe club and the Kerry county team in the 1980s. Born in Templenoe, near Kenmare in County Kerry, he was, along with his brothers Pat and Mick, a key member of the successful Kerry teams of that decade. After winning an All-Ireland minor football championship medal in 1980 he broke into the county panel in 1981 and stayed for eleven seasons, winning four All-Ireland senior championship medals, five Munster senior championship medals, one Kerry senior championship and three All Stars. Together the three Spillane brothers hold a record 19 All-Ireland medals between them. Away from the pitch he works as an auctioneer from Killarney, and in the late 2010s he bought the family bar in Templenoe from his brother Pat.
