Keevans played in all four provinces

SEAMUS KEEVANS, whose death occurred yesterday, had the distinction of having played inter-county football in all four provinces.

A native of Taghmon in New Ross, and a former Garda, he was widely known throughout Wexford as ‘Mr Football’.

During the course of an illustrious career — through being stationed in different parts of the country — he played senior football with Sligo, Cavan, Waterford and, of course, Wexford.
