Christopher Clancy (born 1964) is an Irish retired hurler. He lined out with club side St. Catherine's, divisional team Imokilly, and at the inter-county level with Cork.
Clancy first played hurling as a schoolboy at St. Colman's College in Fermoy, lining out in various competitions including the Harty Cup.[1] He later lined out with Mary Immaculate College in Limerick, while simultaneously beginning adult club hurling with St. Catherine's.[2][3] After winning two East Cork JAHC titles, Clancy was the top scorer when the club won the Cork JHC title in 1983.[4] He also earned selection to the Imokilly divisional team around this time. Clancy won a Cork IHC medal in 1994 before ending his 20-year club career in 2001.
Clancy first played for Cork as a member of the minor team in 1982.[5] He was overlooked for the under-21 team but made a number of appearances for the senior team in various tournaments and trial games in 1986 and 1987.[6] Clancy later joined the junior team and won a Munster JHC medal in 1992 before lining out in the subsequent All-Ireland final defeat by Wexford.[7]
