Paddy Leahy, formally Patrick Leahy, was an Irish hurler who lived from 17 March 1892 until his death on 15 May 1966 and played as a midfielder for the Tipperary senior team. He made his first appearance for Tipperary during the 1916 championship and was a regular member of the starting fifteen until his retirement after the 1927 championship, and during that time he won two All-Ireland medals and several Munster medals. He is identified here as the Tipperary midfielder born in 1892 to tell him apart from other people of the same name.
