Alan Walsh (born 2002) is an Irish hurler and Gaelic footballer. At club level, he plays with Kanturk and at inter-county level with the Cork senior hurling team.
Walsh played Gaelic football and hurling at all grades as a student at Coláiste Treasa in Kanturk. He was part of the school's senior hurling team that won the Munster PPS SCHC title in 2020.[1] He later lined out with MTU Cork in the Fitzgibbon Cup.[2]
At club level with Kanturk, Walsh plays as a dual player with the club's top adult teams. He won a Cork SAHC medal following Kanturk's win over Fr O'Neill's in 2021.[3] This was followed by a Cork PIFC title in 2022, after a 3-11 to 1-10 win over Bantry Blues.[4]
Walsh first appeared on the inter-county scene for Cork as a member of the under-20 football team in 2022.[5] He linked up with the Cork senior hurling team for the first time in a challenge match in January 2025 but played no further part in Cork's season.[6] Walsh was recalled to the senior team in 2026 and was included on the matchday panel for Cork's opening National Hurling League game against Waterford.[7][8]
