Enda Smith is a Gaelic football player from Boyle, County Roscommon, Republic of Ireland who plays at inter-county level for Roscommon GAA.

Career

Smith plays his club football at Boyle GAA. While at university, he played for DCU GAA where he won the Sigerson Cup in 2015 against UCC GAA. During his university GAA matches, he formed a rivalry with UCC's Conor Cox who played county football for Kerry and later joined Smith at Roscommon. Smith made his senior inter-county debut for Roscommon in 2013. He was part of the Roscommon team that made it to the Super 8s stage of the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship after winning the 2017 Connacht Senior Football Championship but lost to Tyrone. Despite this, he was nominated for the GAA GPA All Stars Awards. By 2019, he had become the Roscommon county captain. Before the season started, he had fractured a bone in his hand but made a substitute appearance to score the winning point in the final of the 2019 Connacht Senior Football Championship against Mayo.
On 25 October 2017, Smith was named in the Ireland squad for the 2017 International Rules Series against Australia in November following Dublin GAA players declining to take part in the series due to club commitments and rest breaks.

Personal life

Smith has two brothers, Cian and Donie, both of whom have played gaelic football for Roscommon at differing levels. Until 2018, he studied at Dublin City University. Smith works for Allied Irish Banks in Dublin away from gaelic football.
