He played hurling with his local club Dungourney and was a member of the Cork senior inter-county team from 1902 until 1907. Playing careerClubMahony played his hurling with his local club in Dungourney and enjoyed some success. He won a county senior championship title in 1902. Two more county winners’ medals followed for Mahony in 1907 and 1909. Inter-countyMahony first came to prominence on the inter-county scene with Cork as part of the Dungourney selection in 1902. That year he lined out in his first provincial decider with Limerick providing the opposition. The Shannonsiders failed to test Mahony and at full-time Cork were the champions by 2-9 to 1-5.[1] It was Mahony’s first Munster title. After a draw and a replay with Dublin in the ‘home’ final, Cork qualified for an All-Ireland final meeting with London. The game turned into an absolute rout as Cork powered to a 3-13 to 0-0 victory. It was a fitting opening to the new Cork Athletic Grounds and, more importantly, the victory gave Mahony an All-Ireland winners’ medal.[2] Mahony was dropped from the Cork team for a number of years as Dungourney lost control of the team selection. He was back with Cork in 1907 as the team qualified for the Munster decider once again. Tipperary, the reigning All-Ireland champions, provided the opposition on that occasion and a close game ensued. After a stern test Cork won the game by 1-6 to 1-4 and Mahony added a second Munster winners’ medal to his collection.[3] Cork subsequently qualified for an All-Ireland final showdown with Kilkenny. In one of the best exhibitions of hurling seen to date a close game developed between these great rivals. Jimmy Kelly scored three goals for Kilkenny, the first within seconds of the start. Cork went on several goal hunts at the end of the game, however, Jack Anthony got the winning point for Kilkenny. At the full-time whistle Mahony’s side were defeated by 3-12 to 4-8.[4] Sporting ancestryMahony’s grandson, Seánie O'Leary, followed in his grandfather’s footsteps as a hurler of renown. He played with his local club in Youghal and won All-Ireland titles with Cork as part of the three-in-a-row team in the 1970s. Mahony’s great-grandson, Tomás O'Leary, captained Cork to the All-Ireland minor title. He currently plays rugby with both Munster and Ireland. HonoursDungourney
