Niall Curran (born 1980) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who played as a full-back for the Tipperary senior team.[1]
Born in Mullinahone, County Tipperary, Curran first played competitive Gaelic games during his schooling at Scoil Ruáin. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he first linked up with the Tipperary minor team before later joining the under-21 side. He joined the senior panel during the 2004 championship. Curran later became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won one Tommy Murphy Cup medal.
Curran was a member of the Munster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions. At club level he is a one-time championship medallist as a hurler with Mullinahone.[2]
His brothers, Paul and Seán, have also represented Tipperary in hurling.[3]
He retired from inter-county football following the conclusion of the 2011 championship.[citation needed]
In retirement from playing Curran became involved in team management and coaching, most notably as a selector with the Tipperary under-21 hurling team.[citation needed]
