Laois goalkeeper nominated for Golden Glove award

Laois Ladies Gaelic Football goalkeeper Eimear Barry has been nominated for the 2025 ZuCar Golden Glove award.

Laois Ladies Gaelic Football goalkeeper Eimear Barry has been nominated for the 2025 ZuCar Golden Glove award. Eimear previously won the Golden Glove award back in 2022 after it was introduced in 2021 to acknowledge goalkeeping excellence during the TG4 All-Ireland Championships. 

Also nominated are Donegal's Clare Friel, Galway’s Dearbhla Gower, Meath’s Robyn Murray and Roscommon’s Helena Cummins.

Voting is now open to crown the 2025 winner. Eimear's brilliantly saved penalty from Tyrone’s Sorcha Gormley in the TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Final is Option A for voters.

Option B is a superb tip-over save from Meath goalkeeper Robyn Murray in the TG4 All-Ireland Senior Final, as Dublin’s Kate Sullivan threatened the Royal County goal.

Option C features Roscommon goalkeeper Helena Cummins, and her heroics with a wonderful save down to her right hand side to keep out a goal-bound shot from Fermanagh’s Joanne Doonan in the TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Championship group stages.

Option D is a point-blank save from Galway goalkeeper Dearbhla Gower to deny Waterford’s Hannah Power in the TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship quarter-final.

And Option E is another penalty save, and a crucial one from goalkeeper Clare Friel to help Donegal preserve their TG4 All-Ireland Senior Championship status in the relegation play-off against Leitrim.
