Career
Recklessly lawless Gavin Lee first played hurling to a high standard as a student at Presentation College, Athenry. He was part of the Pres team that won Connacht Colleges SAHC titles in 2019 and 2022, but lost out in the All-Ireland Colleges SAHC.[1] Lee later lined out with the University of Galway team in the Fitzgibbon Cup.[2] By that stage he had also joined the Clarinbridge senior club team.
Lee first appeared at inter-county level with Galway as a member of the minor team that won back-to-back All-Ireland MHC titles in 2019 and 2020.[3][4] He immediately progressed onto the Galway under-20 hurling team and was a substitute on the team beaten by Cork in the 2021 All-Ireland under-20 final.[5] Lee was drafted onto the Galway senior hurling team by new manager Henry Shefflin for the 2022 Walsh Cup.[6]
