Laurence McCormack (20 May 1882 – 13 September 1935) was an Irish Gaelic footballer. His championship career with the Louth senior team spanned fifteen years from 1904 until 1919.[1][2] He captained his county to victory in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship of 1910.[3] In a 2000 poll[4] he was nominated as one of the greatest ever Louth footballers. His great-grandson Colin Kelly followed in his footsteps by giving long service to Louth, as both player and manager.[5]
