Paddy McCourt Siblings: Meet Harry McCourt & Leroy McCourt

Paddy McCourt has two siblings, Harry McCourt and Leroy McCourt.

Harry also played for Derry City and was joint-top scorer in the Irish League during the 1991–92 season while playing for Omagh Town. He also won the 1997–98 Irish League with Cliftonville and now serves as a director at Derry. Leroy has previously worked as a scout for various English and Scottish clubs and is a FIFA registered football agent; his brother Paddy being one of his clients.

McCourt’s journey continued with stints at Barnsley, Brighton & Hove Albion, and Luton Town. His dazzling style of play, marked by memorable goals, earned him recognition. A move back to Northern Ireland with Glenavon and later Finn Harps showcased his commitment to the game.

McCourt represented Northern Ireland at the international level, making his debut in 2002. Despite a gap until 2009, he became a vital asset, scoring his first international goals in a remarkable display against the Faroe Islands.

In June 2018, McCourt announced his retirement from playing to take up a role as head of youth structures at Derry City. His final season with Finn Harps culminated in promotion, a fitting end to a remarkable career.
