Galvin has won three All Star Awards and was Footballer of the Year in 2009.. Paul Galvin is among the all-time greatest Gaelic soccer players, and was a stalwart of the Kerry inter-county team from 2003 until his retirement in 2014. He also plays soccer with his local club Finuge, and hurling with Lixnaw
But it was in the senior team throughout the 2000s that Paul came into his own. But 2010 presented new challenges. Winning four senior All Ireland medals with Kerry and eight Munster championships, he was also a three-time All Star and 2009 Footballer of the Year. Over the course of a career marked by courage, physicality, and an intense passion for the Green and Gold, there were many glorious days. There were other days too, with controversial incidents that led to a number of suspensions, most notably in 2008, the year in which Paul also had the honor of being the Kerry captain. One of the greatest GAA soccer players of the modern era, Paul Galvin has enjoyed a brilliant and at times controversial career. In this fiercely honest autobiography, Paul offers—in his own words—a compelling, unflinching account of a career that has fascinated soccer fans for over a decade.. His inter-county career took off in the late 1990s, when he picked up a Munster minor championship medal in 1997 and another at under-21 level
