Tom Kenny (hurler)
Thomas Kenny (born 16 July 1981) is an Irish hurling coach and hurler who plays for Cork Intermediate Championship club Grenagh. He played for the Cork senior hurling team for 10 years, during which time he usually lined out at midfield before ending his career at right wing-back. Kenny's midfield partnership with Jerry O'Connor is regarded as one of the greatest of all time.
Kenny began his hurling and Gaelic football career at club level with Grenagh. After success as a dual player in the minor grades, he eventually broke onto the club's top adult teams. Kenny enjoyed his first success in 2007 when Grenagh won the Intermediate Football Championship. He won a second Intermediate Football Championship title in 2013, while also claiming a Junior Hurling Championship medal the same season. Kenny's early prowess also saw him selected for University College Cork in the Sigerson and Fitzgibbon Cups as well as the Muskerry divisional team.
At inter-county level, Kenny was part of the successful Cork minor football team that won the Munster Championship in 1999 before later winning a Munster Championship with the under-21 football team in 2001 and an All-Ireland Championship medal with the junior football team the same year. He joined the Cork senior hurling team in 2002. From his debut, Kenny was ever-present at midfield and made a combined total of 116 National League and Championship appearances in a career that ended with his last game in 2013. During that time he was part of two All-Ireland Championship-winning teams – in 2004 and 2005. Kenny also secured three Munster Championship medals. He announced his retirement from inter-county hurling on 12 December 2013.
Kenny was nominated for six consecutive All-Stars between 2003 and 2008 and is regarded as one of the best Cork hurlers never to win the accolade. At inter-provincial level, he was selected to play in two championship campaigns with Munster, with his sole Railway Cup medal being won in 2013.
Kenny became involved in management and coaching following his retirement from playing. He served as a coach and selector, both in third-level competitions and in the Cork Senior Championship, with University College Cork. In June 2019, he was added to the Cork senior hurling management team.
