Barry Johnson (born 17 June 1984) is an Irish hurler. His National Hurling League and All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship career with the Cork senior hurling team lasted one season.[1]
Born in Bartlemy, County Cork, Johnson first played hurling and Gaelic football with the Bride Rovers club. After playing in both codes in juvenile and underage grades at a divisional level, he won a Munster Intermediate Club Hurling Championship medal in 2003, having earlier won a county intermediate championship medal.
Johnson made his debut on the inter-county scene at the age of nineteen when he was selected for the Cork intermediate team. He won an All-Ireland medal as a non-playing substitute in 2004. Johnson later joined the Cork senior team as captain of the team during the 2008–09 senior hurling team strike. He was a regular during the National Hurling League and was retained as a member of the championship panel when the strike was called off.
