Kevin McMenamin

Kevin Wappa McMenamin is an Irish Gaelic footballer. He has played senior inter-county football for Donegal and London, as well as club football for Termon, Tír Chonaill Gaels and Donegal Boston.

A man of a "pint-sized" disposition, McMenamin was born in Belfast. He was included in the Antrim Under-21 panel but progressed no further until Donegal came calling. He is a Tennent's GAA Writers Monthly Merit Award winner, having picked up the award after just three games at inter-county level with Donegal.[1]

McMenamin left the Donegal squad during the 2009 National Football League. In May that year he left for London in search of work, transferred from Termon to Tír Chonaill Gaels and made his debut for London as a substitute in a challenge game with Waterford in Waterford and then played in that year's Connacht Senior Football Championship game against Galway in Ruislip. His Termon clubmates Declan and Mark Alcorn were already with Tír Chonaill Gaels when he arrived.[2]

He also played for Donegal Boston.[3]
