Paul Durcan (Gaelic footballer)
Paul Durcan (born 22 April 1984) is a Gaelic football goalkeeper who plays for Ballyboden St. Enda's and Donegal. A member of the Donegal senior inter-county team since 2004, he has also played soccer for Finn Harps in the League of Ireland.
Among other accolades, he has two All Star to his name (2012 and 2014), one All-Ireland Senior Football Championship (2012), three Ulster Senior Football Championships (2011, 2012 and 2014) and one National Football League (2007). His influence has been likened to that of Peter Schmeichel. His restarts and shot stopping have been compared to those of Stephen Cluxton. Until transferring to Ballyboden St. Enda's in 2015, Durcan played his club football with Four Masters, with whom he won a Donegal Senior Football Championship in 2003.
==Early life==
His father John Durcan is a retired garda, originally from Foxford, County Mayo. He watched his son rise through the ranks at Four Masters alongside Karl Lacey and Barry Dunnion, winning numerous underage titles along the way. He said, "He was always an outfield player, until Martin McHugh made a goalkeeper of him for the U16 Ted Webb Cup in 1999. Although he was nine years younger than his brother Adrian and six younger than Sean, they always had Paul in goals, smashing shots at him. They never let him out!" Durcan's heroes include his fellow Donegal goalkeepers Gary Walsh, Packie Bonner and Shay Given. At the age of nine he watched Donegal win the 1992 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final, which he later described as the greatest game he had ever been to in any sport.
