Shane Charles Getkate (born 2 October 1991) is a South African-born Irish cricketer.[1] Getkate was born with Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome,[2] which caused him to collapse on field during an under-19 game in June 2011.[3] In January 2020, he was one of nineteen players to be awarded a central contract from Cricket Ireland,[4] the first year in which all contracts were awarded on a full-time basis.[5]
