The 2025 Tom Creedon Cup – The Journey Begins
The draw for the 2025 Tom Creedon Cup took place recently. In the hat were eight proud Intermediate football teams from across Cork:
Ilen Rovers, Kilmurry, Knocknagree, Macroom, Millstreet, Naomh Abán, O’Donovan Rossa, and St Vincent’s.
This year’s competition will be played on a knockout basis, adding to the drama and urgency that defines the Tom Creedon Cup each summer.
🗓️ All fixtures are to be played by Sunday, July 13th:
Knocknagree 🆚 O’Donovan Rossa
Macroom 🆚 Ilen Rovers
Millstreet 🆚 Kilmurry
St Vincent’s 🆚 Naomh Abán
📌 What Is the Tom Creedon Cup?
The Tom Creedon Cup is a long-standing competition in Cork GAA, established in 1985 in memory of Tom Creedon, the much-loved Macroom and Cork footballer who tragically passed away in 1983.
The competition was presented to Macroom GAA, Muskerry GAA, and the Cork County Board by the Creedon family and has since become a respected feature of the Intermediate football calendar.
👤 Who Was Tom Creedon?
Tom Creedon (1954–1983) was a native of Macroom, a Cork senior footballer, and a leader on and off the field. A National League winner with Cork in 1980, he also won Railway Cups with Munster in 1977 and 1981.
He captained Macroom through the ranks and helped them return to senior level just before his untimely death. Tom’s legacy is one of commitment, class, and Cork pride—and this cup keeps his memory alive.
