Conor Martin (born 2005 (age 19–20)) is an Irish hurler. At club level he plays with Cappawhite and at inter-county level he was included, in December 2024, in the "training panel" of the Tipperary senior hurling team.

Career

[edit]

Martin played hurling and Gaelic football with his school team at The Abbey School in Tipperary. He played in all grades in both codes and had success in the Limerick U15BHC.[1] Martin later studied at University of Limerick and won a All-Ireland Freshers HC title in 2024.[2]

At club level, Martin first played for Cappawhite at juvenile and underage levels before eventually joining the club's top adult team in the Tipperary IHC.[3]

Martin first appeared on the inter-county scene for Tipperary at the age of 17 as a member of the minor team that won the All-Ireland MHC title after a defeat of Offaly in 2022.[4] He immediately progressed to the under-20 team and was an All-Ireland U20HC runner-up in 2024.[5] Martin earned a call-up to the senior team's training panel in December 2024.[6]
