He played his club football and hurling with Moynalvey GAA and Kiltale GAA[2][3] early in his career, transferring to Kilcock, when his job as a Garda required him to move to Kildare. In 2002 Cathal moved to Summerhill after a protracted struggle with the county board who wanted him to move back to his native club, the neighbouring Moynalvey. Unfortunately success with Summerhill eluded Cathal and he returned to Moynalvey to wind down his much travelled career.
