Dual county
Dual county (Template:Lang-ga) is a term used in Gaelic games to describe a GAA county that competes at a similar level in both hurling and gaelic football. For example, Cork and Dublin play in Division 1 in both the NHL and NFL.
Generally recognised dual counties include:
Only Tipperary and Cork have won both premier men's competitions, the All-Ireland Senior Hurling and All-Ireland Senior Football championships in the same year. Tipperary won both in 1895 and 1900, while Cork won both in 1890 and 1990. Tipperary would today be regarded as primarily a hurling county having not won a major senior football title since 1935. In recent years Dublin have been making great improvements in hurling and may well be become a genuine dual county in the years to come.
Dual player is a similar phrase used to describe players who plays both sports.
