Tommy Breheny was a Gaelic football manager and player. He managed his native Sligo between 2006 and 2007. In that time he led the county to a Connacht Senior Football Championship. Breheny won four Sligo Senior Football Championships as a player with the St Mary's club and led it to a further Sligo SFC as manager in 2001. He is married with four children.[1]

Initially serving as part of Sligo manager Dominic Corrigan's backroom team, Breheny succeeded Corrigan for 2006 and 2007, then resigned as Sligo manager in October 2007.[2] He is the older brother of Mark Breheny, who played for Sligo at the time.[3]
