Dominic Crotty (born July 28, 1974, Cork) is a retired Irish rugby union player.
Playing career
During the munster schools cup quarter final against Crescent in February 1991, Crotty announced his arrival as a talent by kicking a match-equalising conversion, thus forcing a replay in Cork which his team duly won. He was 16 at the time. Years later, in UCC, he is best remembered for an electrifying try scored against UCD at the Mardyke, where he beat practically the entire opposition team to score. Crotty played at Fullback and also on the Wing for Garryowen, Munster and the Irish national team, earning five caps between 1996 and 2000.[1][2]
Coaching
Crotty is now coaching Men's rugby sevens at the Milwaukee Barbarians and coed tag rugby in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
Personal life
Since retiring from rugby he has completed a PhD in biomedical engineering at Duke University in the United States, and he now works for GE Healthcare.
