William Gleeson was an Irish sportsperson in the 1880s. Born in Cork he played hurling with the Tower St. club that won the senior county championship in 1888. As a result of this Gleeson became the first man to captain a team representing Cork in the Munster Championship.[1] Unfortunately, the 1888 championship was never completed owing to a Gaelic Athletic Association tour to the United States.
