Joe Kendrick (died 1965) was a former Irish footballer who played for Brooklyn F.C., Everton and Dolphins. As an international he also played for the Irish Free State. In 1924 Kendrick was member of the Irish Free State team when it made its’s competitive debut at Olympics Games. In 1934 he was also a member of the first ever Free State team to play in a World Cup qualifier. His great nephew, Joe Kendrick Jr., also showed potential as a footballer and as youth was contracted to both Newcastle United and TSV 1860 Munich.

Club career

When Kendrick represented the Irish Free State at the 1924 Olympics Games he was playing as an amateur for Brooklyn F.C. of the League of Ireland. He then subsequently signed for Everton but failed to establish himself in their first team. He did, however, make one international appearance while an Everton player. He eventually returned to the League of Ireland and during the 1930s played for Dolphins, helping them win the League of Ireland title in 1935.

Irish international

Between 1924 and 1935 Kendrick made 6 appearances the Irish Free State. As a member of the squad that competed at the 1924 Olympics Games, he made his debut for the Free State against Bulgaria in their first ever senior international on May 28. Other members of the team included Paddy Duncan, Tommy Muldoon and Dinny Hannon.

Kendrick made his second appearance in the 2-1 defeat to Italy B on May 23 1927. Together with Mick O'Brien, Harry Duggan and Tommy Muldoon, he became one of the first four English League based players to play for the Irish Free State. However Kendrick then had to wait nearly seven years before making his third appearance. On February 25 1934 at Dalymount Park, together with Paddy Moore and Jimmy Kelly, he was a member of the Free State team that made it’s World Cup debut in a qualifier against Belgium. With the Free State trailing 4-3, in the 75th minute, a corner from Kelly was cleared only as far as Kendrick who then lobbed it towards Moore who then scored a dramatic equaliser. Two months later in another qualifier on April 8 1934, Kendrick also played for the Free State in a 5-2 defeat against the Netherlands. He made his last international appearance, once again, against the Netherlands, in a 5-3 defeat on December 8 1935.
