Thank you Séamie
Cork GAA wishes to pay tribute to Séamus Harnedy of St Ita’s, who has announced his retirement from intercounty hurling after 15 years of distinguished service to the Cork senior hurling team.
Séamus’s retirement brings to a close an outstanding career with Cork. After appearing for the first time with Cork in 2011, he won four Munster senior titles, captaining the victorious team in 2018. Séamus played in the All-Ireland Finals of 2013, 2021, 2024 and 2025. He won a National League medal in 2025 and won All-Star awards in 2013, 2018 and 2024. Séamus also featured prominently in four Imokilly county championship winning teams, winning three as captain. His reputation was characterised by his bravery and tenacity, with his ball-winning ability and scoring prowess a feature of so many memorable Cork games over the years.
