  • Andy Fleming (23 April 1916 - 27 March 2011) was an Irish sportsperson. He played hurling with Mount Sion and with the Waterford senior inter-county team from 1939 until 1950. He also played Junior football with Mount Sion and Waterford and senior football with Stradbally and Waterford. He won the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship with Waterford in 1948 and was the last surviving member of that team. When Andy Fleming first travelled the 20 miles from Stradbally to attend Mount Sion schools he was a footballer, but when he came under the influence of Br O'Connor, the inevitable happened - a hurler was born. Andy was to become one of Mount Sion's greatest, a defender of the old school around whom was built a reputation of indestructibility. Fleming was made of granite, a man of high courage on the field when such was a pre-requisite of the game. With Mount Sion he won 6 senior hurling titles and one Junior football. He also won a Munster Junior football medal with Waterford. With Stradbally he won 2 senior football titles. His Railway Cup career with Munster began in 1943 and finished in 1951 when he retired. In those nine years he won 7 medals in eight appearances for the province, missing out in 1947 when Connacht won its first title.
