After progressing through the juvenile and underage ranks with the Ballingarry club, Walsh eventually started to line out at adult level. He captained Ballingarry to the South Tipperary IHC title in 2021, after a 0–24 to 1–15 win over Moyle Rovers.[3]
Walsh first appeared on the inter-county scene with Tipperary as a member of the minor team in 2016. He won a Munster MHC medal that year before later winning an All-Ireland MHC medal following a 1–21 to 0–17 defeat of Limerick in the final.[4][5] Walsh immediately progressed to the under-21 team and won an All-Ireland U21HC medal after a 3–13 to 1–16 win over Cork in the 2018 All-Ireland under-21 final.[6]
