Dick O'Hara, born on 28 May 1957, is a retired Irish sportsperson from Thomastown in County Kilkenny who is regarded as one of Kilkenny's greatest-ever hurlers. He played hurling and Gaelic football with his local Thomastown club, winning the first of three consecutive minor county football titles in 1973, four senior county football titles between 1981 and 1985, and a county intermediate hurling title in 1983. For Kilkenny he won All-Ireland minor and under-21 honours before joining the senior team in 1978, and he collected All-Ireland senior hurling medals in 1979, 1982 and 1983, two National Hurling League titles, and a single All-Star award for his performances in 1983. He also lined out for Leinster in the inter-provincial Railway Cup and retired from inter-county hurling shortly after the 1983 final.
