Niall Corcoran (born 9 July 1982) is a hurling coach and former player at senior level for the Dublin county team until 2016.

County Hurling

He won the All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship with Galway in 2000.[1] He made his championship debut with Dublin against Westmeath in the quarter-final of the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship.[2] Corcoran won the National Hurling League with Dublin in 2011.

Corcoran coaches with Kilmacud Crokes. Corcoran is easy to pick out on the pitch,[citation needed] as he wears a distinctive black and red Mycro helmet.[citation needed]

In 2018, Corcoran joined Eddie Brennan's Laois hurling backroom team.[3] After coaching the Laois hurlers, he joined Davy Fitzgerald's Wexford backroom team when Brennan left the Laois job at the end of 2020.[4]
