John Carney, who lived from 1906 until November 1984, was an Irish Gaelic footballer and trainer whose league and championship career at senior level with the Mayo county team spanned ten years from 1931 to 1941. He made his inter-county debut when he was selected for the Mayo senior team during the 1930-31 league, was dropped the following year and was recalled in 1933 after winning an All-Ireland medal with the Mayo junior team. Over the next eight seasons he won an All-Ireland medal as left wing-forward in 1936, five Connacht medals and seven National Football League medals, and he played his last game for Mayo in June 1941. As a regular member of the Connacht inter-provincial team he won four Railway Cup medals.
