Shane O'Donnell (born 15 June 1994) is an Irish hurler who currently plays as a full-forward for the Clare senior team.

Born in Ennis, County Clare, O'Donnell first excelled at hurling in his youth. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he first linked up with the Clare minor team, before later lining out with the under-21 side. He made his senior debut in the 2013 Waterford Crystal Cup. O'Donnell has since gone on to play a key part for Clare, and has won one All-Ireland medal and one Waterford Crystal Cup medal.

At club level O'Donnell plays with Éire Óg, Ennis.

Playing career

Inter-county

O'Donnell made his senior debut during the pre-season Waterford Crystal Cup in 2013. It was a successful campaign for Clare, as a 1-21 to 1-13 defeat of Tipperary gave O'Donnell a winners' medal in that competition.[1] Later that year he made his championship debut at left corner-forward in a Munster quarter-final defeat of Waterford.[2] The rest of the championship campaign saw O'Donnell dropped from the starting fifteen for several games, however, he was a late addition at full-forward for Clare's All-Ireland final replay against Cork. His selection seemed surprising but was justified, as O'Donnell scored a hat-trick of goals in the first nineteen minutes of the game. Further goals from Conor McGrath and Darach Honan secured a 5-16 to 3-16 victory following a classic championship decider.[3] The win gave O'Donnell a coveted All-Ireland medal, while he was also named man of the match.[4][5] In October 2013, O'Donnell won the Opel Player of the Month Award for September.[6][7]
