Shane Walsh is an archetype for young footballers with respect to two sidedness for upper and lower limb skills. Right pick up, right hop, left solo, left hop, left solo, right hop, left solo, right kick pass. Always the appropriate limb - depending on where the defender is.

Importance of Joe O'Connor to Kerry. His work-rate and athleticism are both incredible. Brian O'Beagaloíoch looks tired in this passage, watch the ground Joe O'Connor makes up to force the turnover.

This Diarmuid Connolly score should always be cited as an example to kids about the importance of non-dominant practice, not just with the feet, but the hands as well. Right hop, left solo, left hop, right foot shot. Four limbs in 8 seconds.

Clifford with the 2 pointer. However, Seanie always handpasses with the appropriate hand. Twice with his left in this passage, despite being right hand dominant for the hand pass. People will say it's no big deal but the data shows otherwise. Basketball hugely benefitted him.

Kerry player, and former Irish basketball international, Ruairí Murphy yesterday. Athletics and basketball - those are the two sports, in the context of a multisport approach, which seem to be most beneficial to Gaelic footballers. Beautiful dummy hop, over the bar with the left.
