Dual player




Dual player[1] or dual star[2] is a term used in Irish English to describe someone who competes in multiple sports - for example in Victorian Ireland cricket and hurling.[3] The term today in Gaelic games typically describes a male player who plays both Gaelic football and hurling or, if a female player, a player of ladies' Gaelic football and camogie. The player does not necessarily have to play at the same standard in both sports. The number of dual stars at county level has decreased recently due to the increasing demands placed upon the best players of both sports.
