Kieran Cremin is an Irish Gaelic footballer with the Dr. Crokes club team and formerly with the Kerry county team.

Playing career[]

Minor[]

Cremin was a member of the Kerry team that played in the 1998 All-Ireland Minor Football Championship, winning the Munster Minor Football Championship after a win over Limerick in the final.[1] Cremins side lot out to Laois in the All-Ireland semi-final.

Under 21[]

He then went on to play with the county u-21 team in the All-Ireland Under-21 Football Championship winning a Munster Under-21 Football Championship in 1999.[2] Kerry later qualified for the All-Ireland final where they had a surprise loss to Westmeath.

He was a member of the team for the next two seasons without success.

Junior[]

Cremin went on to win a Munster Junior Football Championship with the Kerry junior side in 2002.[3] His side later qualified for the All-Ireland only to suffer a surprise loss to Wicklow.

Cremin was for some time second-choice goalkeeper on the Kerry team. He was regarded as a talented goalkeeper and a likely successor to Diarmuid Murphy when the latter retired. Indeed, the Sunday Tribune predicted him as the 2010 All-Star goalkeeper in 2005. [1]. However, by the time Murphy retired in 2010, so had Cremin.

In 2007, he appeared in an All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship final with Dr. Crokes, although they were controversially defeated in a replay by Crossmaglen Rangers.
