Kevin Fitzpatrick is a Gaelic football player from County Laois in Ireland.
A very talented soccer player in his teenage years, Kevin was part of the Laois team which won the county's first ever All-Ireland Minor Football Championship in 1996 and in 2003 he was part of the Laois team that won the Leinster Senior Football Championship title for the first time in 57 years.
Even on that great day in 2003, as he watched his clubmate Ian Fitzgerald lift the Delaney Cup, Kevin must have felt a pang of regret at his first half dismissal which ruled him out of the subsequent All-Ireland quarter final against Armagh.
Injuries haven’t been kind to Kevin either and he missed a lot of football with a long-standing groin problem.
In late 2006, Kevin was recalled to the Laois senior squad under the new manager Liam Kearns.
