  • Christy Cooney (Irish: Críostóir Ó Cuana, born 1952 in Youghal, County Cork, Ireland) is a Gaelic games administrator, who served as the 36th president of the Gaelic Athletic Association. He was elected president at the annual GAA Congress on 12 April 2008 and succeeded Nickey Brennan in the post in 2009 - becoming the 36th president of the GAA. In the GAA Annual Congress in 2005, Nickey Brennan was voted as the new GAA president, only 17 votes ahead of Cooney. Brennan's election was seen as a surprise by some and Cooney thought he had gathered enough support among delegates to secure the position. Brennan said that he hoped Cooney would put his name forward again in the future. At the time Cooney was president of his local club Youghal. Cooney ran again for president three years later and was elected with over half the votes at the 2008 Congress, beating Liam O'Neill and Sean Fogarty. In 2011 O'Neill was nominated unopposed to succeed to the post, and did so as Cooney stepped down in April 2012. Earlier, in the mid-1990s, Cooney was one of the government-appointed members of the Independent Radio and Television Commission (IRTC), which at the time licensed and regulated Independent broadcasting in Ireland.

  • Is iaruachtarán ar an CLG é Críostóir Ó Cuana (Béarla: Christy Cooney). Toghadh ina uachtarán é ar an 12 Aibreán, 2008 ag Comhdháil Chumann Lúthchleas Gael na bliana sin, agus tháinig sé isteach i mbun oifige sa bhliain 2009. Tháinig sé i gcomharbacht ar Nioclás Ó Braonáin, as Contae Chill Chainnigh. Is as Eochaill i gContae Chorcaí é Ó Cuana, áit inar rugadh é sa bhliain 1952. Nuair a toghadh Nioclás Ó Braonáin sa bhliain 2005, bhí Ó Cuana san iomaíocht fós, ach fuair Ó Braonáin seacht vóta déag ní ba mhó. Agus é ag glacadh oifige, dúirt Ó Braonáin go mbeadh sé ag súil go gcuirfeadh Ó Cuana a ainm isteach sa chéad thoghchán eile, agus rinne sé amhlaidh sa bhliain 2008. I dtoghchán na bliana 2008, bhailigh Ó Cuana níos mó ná leath na vótaí, ag fáil an ceann is fearr ar Liam Ó Néill agus Seán Ó Fógartaigh. Tháinig Liam Ó Néill i gcomharbacht air sa bhliain 2012. (ga)
