Augustine P. Flynn (1933 – 26 April 2021), known as Austin Flynn, was an Irish hurler. As a player, he was noted in newspaper reports as a "fine hard-tackling but honest player" and "a sturdy sentry on the edge of the square."[1] Flynn had a fifteen-year association with the Waterford senior hurling team and has been described as "one of its greatest defenders."[2]
