Jim Dermody

James Dermody (1 September 1898 – 9 February 1975) was an Irish hurler. His league and championship career as a goalkeeper with the Kilkenny senior team lasted several years between 1922 and 1934.^[1]

Born in Three Castles, County Kilkenny, Dermody first played hurling with the local Threecastles club. After a period playing for the Kilkenny club in New York, he returned to Ireland and joined the Tullaroan club with whom he won a county championship medal in 1930.^{[citation needed]}

Dermody first played for Kilkenny as a replacement for the absent Mark McDonald in 1922. He lined out for the team in the earlier rounds of the championship, winning a Leinster medal, but missed the subsequent All-Ireland victory. After almost a decade away from the inter-county scene, Dermody returned as first-choice Kilkenny goalkeeper in 1931. Over the course of the following four seasons he won two All-Ireland medals and three further Leinster medals.^{[citation needed]}

As a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, Dermody won back-to-back Railway Cup medals in 1932, as captain, and 1933. He had earlier represented the United States team in the 1928 Tailteann Games.^{[citation needed]}
