Brendan C. Considine, born on 21 February 1897 and died on 17 December 1983, was an Irish hurler, Gaelic footballer, rugby player and boxer who played as a left corner-forward for the Clare, Dublin, Cork and Waterford senior teams. He first played for Clare in 1914 and was a regular inter-county hurler until he retired in 1930. A member of the famous Considine family, which included his brothers Willie and Tull, he is regarded as one of Clare's greatest ever hurlers. He won two All-Ireland medals, the first as a seventeen-year-old in 1914, which made him the youngest player ever to win an All-Ireland title, along with two Munster hurling medals, two Leinster hurling medals and one Leinster football medal. At club level he won multiple county championships with Ennis Dalcassians and Collegians.
