Sean Sheridan was known as a player of perfect skill and balance in the forward line. He was very clever with great pace, poise and flair and first-class sportsmanship 

His input into every game was considerable - especially at club level and there were several moments of sheer brilliance in his many years playing the game. He was a prolific scorer - both from play and frees - over a 25-year period. Sean’s captained the Junior football team who won Castletown’s first ever county final. He played Senior with Castletown from 1961 to 1979 in a number of forward positions. Sean’s Intercounty football career was also praiseworthy; he was a member of the Wexford Senior football team for several years. He won a Leinster Junior Football medal in 1963. Honours won 8 county medals for senior football with Castletown in 1965, 66, 69, 70, 73, 76, 77 and 1979.
