Gareth Bradshaw (born 13 February 1987 in Galway) is a Gaelic footballer from Galway. He is currently a member of the Galway senior football team. Bradshaw has been described as "a future All-Star"〔http://www.tribune.ie/archive/article/2010/apr/11/nfl-previews/〕 and "one of the best attacking defenders in the country".〔http://www.tribune.ie/article/2010/mar/21/same-fears-for-tribe-after-stuttering-start/〕 Bradshaw was part of a very successful St Mary's College, Galway team along with current Galway players Paul Conroy, Eoin Concannon, Eddie Hoare and David O'Connell. Bradshaw made his debut in the 2008 Championship, against Roscommon in the Connacht SFC 1st Round clash. He was one of four debutants introduced by manager Liam Sammon. He kept his place for the semi-final against Leitrim. In the build-up to the 2008 Connacht Final against Mayo, his starting place was under threat since Keiran Fitzgerald, All-Ireland medal winner and former captain had regained full fitness but Sammon decided to keep faith with Bradshaw. He returned the faith placed in him by putting in an impressive performance against Mayo, scoring one point in Galway's 2-12 to 1-14 victory. Bradshaw plays his club football with Moycullen. Moycullen were crowned the All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football champions although Bradshaw missed the final due to suspension after being sent off in the simi-final with Annascaul. He has since established himself as one of the main fixtures in the Galway panel, with his aggressive forward runs and his ability to read the game. He has played in numerous positions, including corner back, wing back and midfield but his strongest position is often centre half back as he has the ability to control the game from that area of the field. He has been linked with a move to the AFL with clubs such as St. Kilda having offered him a contract. But he chose to continue to play for the Galway set up for the 2010 season. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gareth Bradshaw」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
