During the final year of his undergraduate course at Queen’s University, Micheál Glynn faced a pivotal moment when Larne Football Club, recognising his talent on the field, recruited him as a left-back.
Micheál’s impressive performance and unwavering commitment on the field not only maintained their top-of-the-league status, but also secured two County Antrim Shield titles. He was also selected to play for the Northern Ireland Under-21s in the European Qualifiers. Micheál praised the supportive environment at Queen's as a cornerstone of his success. His lecturers, and particularly Dr Philip Boland, offered unwavering support and guidance, which helped him navigate the challenges of balancing his demands and provided him with flexibility to excel in both arenas.
