Paudie played at midfield and was known for tireless work rate around the centre of the pitch along with a notably lazy and graceful hurley swing. The closest Paudie came to Inter-County silverware was in 1989 when Waterford GAA finished runner-up to Tipperary GAA in the Munster Senior Hurling Championship. Paudie played with the village of Ballyduff Upper and won two Waterford Senior Hurling Championships in 1982 and 1987. After retiring from Senior club hurling in the early part of this decade, Paudie continued to play with Ballyduff Upper GAA for a number of years at Junior level.[1]
