Barry Walsh (born 2006) is an Irish hurler.[1] At club level, he plays with Killeagh and at inter-county level with the Cork senior hurling team.
Walsh played hurling at all grades, including the Dr Harty Cup, during his time as a student at Midleton CBS Secondary School.[2] He later lined out with MTU Cork's freshers' hurling team.[3]
At club level, Walsh first played for Killeagh at juvenile and underage levels. He was part of the club's minor team that won consecutive Cork Premier 2 MHC titles in 2022 and 2023, after respective defeats of Erin's Own and Shandrum.[4][5] Walsh made his Killeagh senior team debut in June 2025.[6]
At inter-county level, Walsh was part of Cork hurling development squads since under-14 level.[7] He was part of the minor team that lost the 2023 Munster MHC final to Clare, but ended the year by being included on the GAA Minor Hurling Team of the Year.[8][9] Walsh immediately progressed to the under-20 team.[10]
Walsh was added to the senior team in 2026 and was included on the starting fifteen for Cork's National Hurling League game against Kilkenny.[11][12]
