Bob McConkey
Robert McConkey (11 January 1895 – 5 January 1961) was an Irish hurler. His championship career at the senior level with the Limerick county team spanned sixteen years from 1918 until 1934. McConkey first played competitive hurling with the St Patrick's club in Limerick. He later joined the Young Irelands club and won five county senior championship medals between 1920 and 1932.

Over the course of a sixteen-year period, he won three All-Ireland medals, beginning with his first in 1918, a second as captain of the team in 1921 and a third and final winners' medal in 1934.

St Patrick's GAA (Limerick)
St Patrick's GAA ( Irish: ''CLG Naomh Pádraig'') is a Gaelic Athletic Association located in the Rhebogue area of Limerick City, Ireland. The club fields teams in both hurling and Gaelic football. History Located in the Rhebogue area on the banks of the River Shannon, St Patrick's GAA Club is one of the oldest clubs in Limerick, having been founded in 1886. It remains the oldest-surviving city club. The club enjoyed Gaelic football success in its early years, winning back-to-back Limerick SFC titles at the expense of Commercials in 1890 and 1891. Half a century passed before the club enjoyed what could arguably be described as its most successful period. Further Limerick SFC titles were won in 1943, 1944 and 1954, while St Patrick's also claimed consecutive Limerick SHC titles in 1949 and 1950. The club's most recent success was a Limerick JAHC title in 2017. Honours * Limerick Senior Football Championship (5): 1890, 1891, 1943, 1944, 1954 * Limerick Senior Hurling C ...
