A captain of a Gaelic games team, sometimes known as a skipper,[1] is a player who, during the course of a match as well as before and after it, has several additional roles and responsibilities over and above those of his teammates.
Tradition means that some teams rotate the captaincy annually, though others may adopt a permanent captain. As well as being an onfield leader, a captain takes the coin toss and raises the trophy when this is the game's prize.
