Thomas Flynn (born 1938) is an Irish former hurler. At club level he played with Newcastle and at inter-county level was a member of various Tipperary teams at all levels.

Playing career

Flynn first played hurling at club level with Newcastle. He was part of the club's junior team that won the South Tipperary JHC title in 1960. At inter-county level, Tierney first played for Tipperary as part of the minor team that won a fifth consecutive Munster MHC title in 1956. This win was later converted into an All-Ireland MHC medal, with Flynn lining out at right corner-forward.

After a brief spell with the senior team in 1957, Flynn spent three seasons with the junior team. He won a Munster IHC title in 1961, before claiming a second winners' medal in 1963. Flynn's final inter-county game saw him claim an All-Ireland IHC medal following Tipperary's defeat of London.
