Paul Greville is a dual player from County Westmeath. He plays both Gaelic football and hurling with Westmeath GAA,[1] and was part of the team that won the Christy Ring Cup.[2] He has received National Hurling League and National Football League medals.

Greville plays club football with Killucan, winning the 2005 intermediate football championship,[3] and club hurling with Raharney GAA, winning Westmeath Senior Hurling Championships in 2006, 2008 and 2010. In 2020 he moved to Derrytresk in Tyrone.

Greville also signed for Naomh Colum Cille, a hurling team in Tyrone and won the 2021 Tyrone Junior Hurling Championship scoring 0-4 from play in the final vs Omagh St Enda's GAA

[edit]

Greville's tenure as captain led to a number of legal issues on and off the pitch. His red card against neighbours Killyman St Mary's GAC being most notable. After losing the game by 4 points, an altercation in the car park led to Greville deciding to run down the referee in his car, a Dacia Jogger. Greville was cited and banned from competition for 1 game and given a £100 fine. A lawsuit by the referee was settled outside of court.

Greville repeated these actions against rivals Urney St Columba's GAC, with Tyrone GAA ordering the Dacia be seized and sold to pay compensation to his victims.
