John Crowley is a former Irish Gaelic football forward with the Glenflesk and Bishopstown clubs, East Kerry divisional side and Kerry county team.
Playing career
With the East Kerry team, Crowley won three consecutive Kerry Senior Football Championship titles from 1997 to 1999, starring on the side along with fellow Glenflesk and Kerry player Séamus Moynihan. He also had a lot of success with Glenflesk during one of the club's most successful eras. He won 5 East Kerry Senior Football Championships as well as a Kerry Club Football Championship in 2000, Glenflesk would later qualify for the Munster Senior Club Football Championship final where they lost out to Nemo Rangers. He also spent a year playing with Bishopstown in Cork city.
Intercounty career
Crowley first played with Kerry in the early 90s when he lined out for the county's Vocational Schools team. He won All Ireland titles with them in 1992 following a win of Offaly in the final and again in 1993 following a win over Wicklow. He also played with the Kerry minor team at this time but had little success.
He then moved on to the Under 21 panel in 1994. Kerry lost out to Cork in the semi-final in what was their only game of the championship. Later in 94 he would join up with the county junior team. A one pont win over Clare gave Crowley his first Munster championship medal. Kerry later qualified for the All Ireland final where they faced Galway. In the end Kerry ran out easy winners on a 0–15 to 0–04 scoreline, giving him his first All Ireland medal at junior level.
