Richard Hogan (born 8 August 1988) is an Irish hurler who played as a midfielder at senior level for the Kilkenny county team from 2007 until 2023.[1]
Born in Waterford in 1988, Hogan is a native of Danesfort, County Kilkenny. Hogan first played competitive hurling during his schooling at St Kieran's College. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of fifteen when he first linked up with the Kilkenny minor team, before later joining the under-21 side. He joined the senior panel during the 2007 championship. Hogan soon became a regular member of the starting fifteen and has won seven All-Ireland medals, seven Leinster medals and four National Hurling League medals. He has been an All-Ireland runner-up on two occasions.
As a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team, Hogan has won one Railway Cup medal. At club level he is an All-Ireland and Leinster medallist at junior level with Danesfort. In addition to these he has also won several championship medals in different grades.
Hogan's brother Paddy was also a member of the Kilkenny senior team and won All Ireland Medals in 2011 and 2012 while his close relation D. J. Carey is regarded as one of the all-time greats of the game.
