Biography:
Teenage goalkeeper called into the senior Northern Ireland squad for the first time for a training camp in May 2017. Originally a midfielder, as often happens, he first donned the gloves when the regular keeper was injured for a Foyle Cup match and utilised the handling skills he had learned as a Gaelic footballer to save a penalty.

A former pupil of St Patrick's Grammar in Downpatrick, Hazard joined Celtic's Academy in July 2014. At a height of 6 foot 6 inches he commands his area well and has represented Northern Ireland at Under-16, Under-17 and Under-19 levels. Hazard was on the bench for the senior team against South Korea in March 2018 as Michael O'Neill continued his policy of including young players in the senior squad for experience.

Biography:
Frank Heaney was a back with St James's Gate when they were one of the leading intermediate sides affiliated to the Irish FA and then the leading side in the first season under the FA of the Irish Free State, captaining them to the League and Cup "Double" in 1922.

Early in his career Heaney, along with his brother John, had been briefly on the books at Leeds City. He was brought into the team in December 1911 after a 5-1 home defeat by Burnley. Heaney was described as hesitant and slow as Leeds faired even worse, losing 5-0 to Wolves. He made just one more Football League appearance, in a 1-0 defeat by Derby County.

Capped at Amateur level prior to the Great War, Heaney returned to the international stage post-War, including for the first "foreign" trip to France in 1921. In 1924 he was selected for the Free State's squad for the Olympics, but he was not among the party that travelled to Paris.
