Thomas Flynn (born 1938) is an Irish former hurler. At club level he played with Newcastle and at inter-county level was a member of various Tipperary teams at all levels.
Playing career
Flynn first played hurling at club level with Newcastle.[1] He was part of the club's junior team that won the South Tipperary JHC title in 1960. At inter-county level, Tierney first played for Tipperary as part of the minor team that won a fifth consecutive Munster MHC title in 1956.[2] This win was later converted into an All-Ireland MHC medal, with Flynn lining out at right corner-forward.[3]
After a brief spell with the senior team in 1957, Flynn spent three seasons with the junior team.[4] He won a Munster IHC title in 1961, before claiming a second winners' medal in 1963.[5] Flynn's final inter-county game saw him claim an All-Ireland IHC medal following Tipperary's defeat of London.[6]
