Being Ireland’s most capped athlete is one that sits easy with Co Tyrone hockey legend Shirley McCay.
The Drumquin native and former Omagh Academy pupil retired from international hockey at the end of last year after competing for her country in the Olympic Games in Tokyo, after lining out an impressive 316 times.
Shirley was part of the highly successful Irish ladies hockey team which made it to the World Cup Final in 2018, but after her recent retirement she said she was enjoying having a bit of extra time off.
