After winning several minor and under-21 championship medals, he won a county junior championship medal in 1983 before winning a county senior championship medal in 1986. He later won a Connacht medal. Keady made his debut on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he was selected for the Galway minor team.

Keady played his last game for Galway in April 1993 before being dropped from the team during the subsequent championship. After being chosen on the Connacht inter-provincial team for the first time in 1985, Keady was a regular choice on the starting fifteen for the following few years. During that time he won two Railway Cup medals. He is considered the best centre-backs of all time. (en)
