As many of you will know, our teammate and friend Conor Quinn suffered a devastating knee injury during the WA Men’s Senior Hurling Semi-Final against St Gabriel’s this year.
Unfortunately, the injury was extremely serious, with Conor suffering a ruptured ACL, LCL and MCL, tears to both the medial & lateral meniscus, a torn patella & a fractured femur.
Conor is an electrician by trade, so being able to walk and move safely is essential for him to do his job. At the moment, he is on crutches and is unable to return to work until he has undergone surgery and is medically cleared to do so. This means he is currently facing a significant period without an income, while also dealing with considerable medical and living expenses.
Thankfully, following a medical appointment this week, he has been expedited for emergency surgery due to the severity of the injury. While this is fantastic news and will hopefully put him on the road to recovery, he now faces a lengthy period of rehabilitation and physiotherapy before he can return to work or sport.
As a GAA community, we want to come together and get behind Conor. Quinny is a hugely valued member of Sarsfields Hurling Club and is incredibly well respected throughout the WA GAA community. He has represented Western Australia at State level over the past two years, travelling to Melbourne and Brisbane, and was a successful member of the WA State team back in 2024.
He is not only an outstanding athlete, but an absolute gentleman off the field who gives a huge amount to the club and the wider GAA community.
We are asking everyone to please donate whatever you can to help Conor through this difficult period. Whether it’s a small or large donation, every contribution will help towards Conor’s medical costs, rehabilitation and day-to-day living expenses while he is unable to work.
Let’s get behind Conor, support one of our own and help get him back on his feet and back doing what he loves.
Thank you all for your support 💙💛 (link available in bio)
