Jim Power (hurler)

Power represented the Connacht inter-provincial team on one occasion, however, he ended his career without a Railway Cup medals.

[citation needed] Once again the championship was suspended in 1924, however, Tynagh continued their dominance on its resumption by reaching the county final again in 1925.

He enjoyed little success in his first few years on the team, however, Galway captured the Connacht title in 1922 and gave a good account of themselves in a narrow defeat by Tipperary in the subsequent All-Ireland semi-final.

After beating reigning champions Kilkenny at the penultimate stage, Galway now faced Limerick who were bidding for a third All-Ireland title in seven years.

[3] Power was a key member of the team again in 1924 as Galway reached a second successive All-Ireland decider with Dublin providing the opposition.

Two goals by Dublin forward Garrett Howard and a great goalkeeping display by Tommy Daly ensured a 5–3 to 2–6 defeat for Galway.

[5] After taking umbrage at the physical treatment of Mick King by some of the Cork players, Power threw his hurley onto the ground at the full-time whistle and decided to retire from hurling.
