Many tributes have been paid to legendary figure of Roscommon GAA-  Seán Young after he passed away on Sunday.

Seán Young was originally from Derry but travelled around the country as a bank official (including working in Ballinamore in Leitrim) and contributed greatly to the GAA world.

In 1972, He settled in Boyle to take up his  position with Northern Bank before retiring from there in 1997. The Derry man was an innovative coach that managed Roscommon twice. Once in the 1970's and then again in the 1980's.
