Career

He was not allowed to play in the 2012 Ulster Senior Final because of a suspension. DB DB [2][3] He was thought to have put a stamp on to Karl O'Connell in the Ulster Semi Final game with Monaghan.[4][5][6] Down manager James McCartan Jnr confirmed it was not the stamp, but an instant of 'endangering an opposition player' that was noticed in video evidence.[7] Garevy had an ankle injury so he could only get one substitute appearance in the 2013 League.[2] He then worked as a mechanic after an injury that left him missing all of the 2013 All Ireland Championship.[2] His club is Mayobridge.[3]
