LISCANNOR teenager John Sheridan is among the photographers to have their work showcased in the iconic ‘A Season of Sundays’.

John Sheridan was on work experience wIth Sportsfile and has previously been assigned various games in the county for them in recent seasons. He has also showcased his work in The Clare Echo when covering the exploits of Ennistymon CBS.

His work is included in the twenty seventh edition of ‘A Season of Sundays’, the annual publication by sporting photography agency Sportsfile which marks the end of the GAA season with a fine collection of images.

Sheridan’s photograph of Dublin’s Paddy Small kicking the ball over the bar despite the efforts of Monaghan’s Conor Boyle into the Hill 16 during the All-Ireland SFC semi-final is among the photographs in the book.

Clare footballer, Ikem Ugwueru is included on page sixty, the Ennis man is photographed following their defeat to Cork in the Allianz National Football League from March, it is another shot captured by John.

A Transition Year student in Ennistymon Community School, sixteen year old John was one of four Sportsfile photographers on duty for the All-Ireland semi-final. “I would also like to thank Ray and the Sportsfile staff for giving me these amazing opportunities,” he told The Clare Echo.

Not that Clare hurling followers will want to be reminded of it but the last-gasp save from Kilkenny goalkeeper Eoin Murphy to deny Peter Duggan a late goal in the All-Ireland SHC semi-final is among the pick of the photographs.
