Anthony Nash (born 12 October 1984) is a retired Irish hurler who played for the Kanturk and Limerick Championship Club South Liberties clubs. He played for the Cork senior hurling team for 15 seasons, during which time he lined out as a goalkeeper.
Nash began his hurling career at club level with Kanturk. He broke onto the club's top adult team as a 16-year-old in 2001 and, after winning Intermediate and Premier Intermediate championship titles, he enjoyed his greatest success in 2018 when he claimed an All-Ireland Club Championship winners' medal in the intermediate grade. Nash's prowess also saw him being selected for divisional side Duhallow, Cork Institute of Technology and University College Cork, with whom he won a Fitzgibbon Cup medal in 2009.
At inter-county level, Nash was part of the successful Cork minor team that won the All-Ireland Minor Championship in 2001 before later winning a record four All-Ireland Intermediate Championships with the intermediate team in 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2009. He joined the Cork senior team in 2005. Nash eventually succeeded Donal Óg Cusack as first-choice goalkeeper and made a combined total of 91 National League and Championship appearances in a career that ended with his last game in 2020. During that time he was part of four Munster Championship-winning teams – in 2006, 2014, 2017 and 2018. Nash was an All-Ireland Championship runner-up on two occasions. He announced his retirement from inter-county hurling on 6 December 2020.
Nash won his first All-Star in 2012. He claimed a second successive accolade in 2013, the same year he was also nominated for Hurler of the Year. At inter-provincial level, Nash was selected to play in several championship campaigns with Munster, with his sole Railway Cup medal being won in 2013.
Nash transferred to Limerick club South Liberties in 2021. In October 2022, he announced his retirement from club hurling after South Liberties were beaten in the 2022 Limerick Senior Hurling Championship semi-final by Na Piarsaigh.[1]
