James O'Donoghue (born 19 June 1990) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who plays for Kerry SFC club Killarney Legion. He is a former player at senior level for the Kerry county team.

Career

Born in Killarney, County Kerry, O'Donoghue's father, Diarmuid, won two All-Ireland medals with the Kerry senior football team under Mick O'Dwyer.[1] He first came to prominence at juvenile and underage levels with the Killarney Legion club, while also enjoying Corn Uí Mhuirí success with St. Brendan's College.[2] O'Donoghue first appeared on the inter-county scene as a member of the Kerry minor football team that won the Munster Minor Championship in 2008. His two seasons with the under-21 team yielded little in terms of success before making his senior team debut during the 2010 National League. O'Donoghue made a combined total of 76 league and championship appearances and was named Footballer of the Year in 2014, having earlier helped Kerry to the All-Ireland Championship title.[3][4] His other honours include nine Munster Championships and three National League titles. O'Donoghue announced his inter-county retirement in January 2022.[5][6][7]

Personal life

O'Donoghue did a Level 7 Sports and Exercise Course at the University of Limerick between 2008 and 2013. He became a Qualified Financial Advisor in Banking and Financial Support Services after doing a course at IOB (a recognised college of University College Dublin) between 2015 and 2018. He worked as a bartender in Dan Linehans Bar between November 2004 and January 2015. He began working as a mortgage advisor for Allied Irish Banks in February 2015.[8]
