Kieran Cremin is an Irish Gaelic footballer with the Dr. Crokes club team and formerly with the Kerry county team.

Playing career

Cremin was a member of the Kerry team that played in the 1998 All-Ireland Minor Football Championship, winning the Munster Minor Football Championship. He then went on to play with the county u-21 team in the All-Ireland Under-21 Football Championship from 1999 to 2001, winning one Munster Under-21 Football Championship. Cremin went on to win a Munster Junior Football Championship with the Kerry juniors, before being selected for the senior squad.

Cremin was for some time second-choice goalkeeper on the Kerry team. He was regarded as a talented goalkeeper and a likely successor to Diarmuid Murphy when the latter retired. Indeed, the Sunday Tribune predicted him as the 2010 All-Star goalkeeper in 2005. [1]. However, by the time Murphy retired in 2010, so had Cremin.

In 2007, he appeared in an All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship final with Dr. Crokes, although they were controversially defeated in a replay by Crossmaglen Rangers.
