Jimmy Conway OASA Article 2017.Pages
Jimmy Conway - a local Soccer Legend In late 2009 local soccer legend, Jimmy Conway, was diagnosed with ‘Trauma Induced Dementia’. Since that time the local soccer community has come together once a year to recognize and celebrate Jimmy’s contribution to the game of soccer. Jimmy was born in Dublin, Ireland and went on to play for the famous ‘Stella Maris F.C.’ and became a youth international player for the Republic of Ireland. He progressed up the football ranks and signed as an amateur with ‘Bohemians FC’ before signing for Fulham F.C. prior to the 1966 season. Over a 12-year period he played 316 league and 44 ‘cup' games for Fulham and scored 67 league and 9 ‘cup’ goals during that period. While at Fulham he played as a losing finalist against West Ham United at the famed Wembley stadium, in front of 100,000 fans in the 1975 F.A. Cup Final. Jimmy was ‘capped’ 20 times for the Republic of Ireland and played alongside some of Ireland’s greatest ever players e.g. Johnny Giles. Conway was transferred to the Portland Timbers in 1978 and played 61 matches scoring 7 goals and 14 assists during that period. In 1979 Conway was named Timbers captain. He was appointed assistant coach/ captain in 1980 and went on to work as an assistant coach during two periods at the club 1978-80 and 2001-05. Conway received his USSF (US Soccer) ‘A’ license in January 1991 and was appointed a member of the USSF National Coaching Staff in 1994. -
