John Joe "Goggles" Doyle (14 June 1906 – 11 August 2000) was an Irish hurler who played as a left corner-back for the Clare senior team.

Doyle made his first appearance for the team during the 1926 championship and was a regular member of the starting fifteen until his retirement after the 1938 championship. During that time he won one Munster medal. Doyle was an All-Ireland runner-up on one occasion.

At club level Doyle is a six-time county club championship medalist with Newmarket-on-Fergus.

In retirement from playing Doyle was recognised as one of a number of the "greatest players never to have won an All-Ireland medal". In 1990 Doyle was presented with the GAA All-Time All-Star Award.
