Jim Power Captained the Midleton/Cork team that won the All Ireland Football title in 1890 and John Fenton Captained the Cork senior hurling team in the Centenary All Ireland hurling final in 1984.  
  6. Peter Smith became the first Midleton player to play on and manage a Midleton senior team to County senior championship victories (1991 and 2013).
