Johnny Leahy

Johnny Leahy, formally John Leahy, was an Irish hurler who lived from 27 December 1891 until his death on 19 November 1949 and played as a midfielder for the Tipperary senior team. After joining the team for a tournament game in 1909, he made his proper debut during the 1914 championship and was a regular member of the starting fifteen until his retirement after the 1928 championship. He is identified here as the Tipperary midfielder born in 1891 to tell him apart from other people of the same name.
