Brian Begley (born 1979) is an Irish sportsperson. He plays hurling with his local club Mungret[1] and with the Limerick senior inter-county team [2]. He also played football with the Limerick senior team.

Playing career

Club

Begley plays his club hurling with his local Mungret club and has enjoyed some success.

Inter-county

Begley first came to prominence on the inter-county scene as a member of the Limerick under-21 team. He won a Munster title at this level in 2000 before later collecting an All-Ireland medal following a victory over Galway. It was Limerick's first step towards three such titles in-a-row, however, Begley was overage for the latter two victories. By this stage he had already joined the county senior team, however, Limerick's hurling fortunes were about to take a dramatic downturn. Following the county's victory over Cork in the Munster Championship in 2001 Limerick failed to win a game in the province until their 2007 Munster semi-final victory over Tipperary. This was achieved following a three-game saga, however, Begley's side later lost the Munster final to Waterford. Limerick later gained revenge by defeating 'the Decies' in the subsequent All-Ireland semi-final, setting up an All-Ireland final meeting with Kilkenny on 2 September, 2007. Begley gave a fine performance scoring a goal and winning a penalty.

Football

Begley won a Munster Under-21 Football Championship with Limerick in 2000 and played in the All Ireland Final[3] but lost out to Tyrone. With the Limerick seinor team he played in two Munster Senior Football Championship in 2003 and 2004 but lost out both times to Kerry in 2004 only after a re-play.
