The Jeremiah Keohane Cup was presented to the club by relatives of Jeremiah to honour his memory.  Jeremiah was from the The Old Head.  He played with Ballinspittle prior to the formation of the club in 1947.  His position was full back in both hurling and football.  He had 10 West Cork Championship medals.  

Jeremiah was a proud Courcey man who wore the jersey with pride and passion.  

Denis Paul Griffin a team mate of Jeremiah's wrote in the Souvenir Programme of the Official Opening of Pairc Ui Riogain "Jeremiah Keohane - the man of iron - played most of his matches at full back.  His rugged strength was a source of inspiration to most of his colleagues and his courage was unquestionable." 

Jeremiah was also a past Chairman of the adult club and a loyal servant of the club.  He also gave the club the use of a field in the Old Head for many years for early season training and league games.
