"Lilywhite midfielder explains the difficulties of juggling the demands of inter-county football with a personal and professional life Kevin Feely hasn't yet dared to sit down and assess just how much money he has lost in the eight years since Kildare's Tailteann Cup-winning captain started his physio business in 2017. Or, rather, how much more money he could have earned."
""You could count it up," the 33-year-old smiles. "But I'd be afraid to!""
Kevin Feely manages the demands of inter-county football alongside personal and professional responsibilities. He captained Kildare to a Tailteann Cup and launched a physiotherapy business in 2017. Over the eight years since founding the business, he has not sat down to total the income he has lost because of sporting commitments. He recognizes that there is an opportunity cost and that he could calculate the difference, but he is reluctant to do so. At 33 years old, he speaks about the trade-offs with a wry smile, conveying both pride and acceptance of those sacrifices.
