Career
O'Connell first played hurling at juvenile and underage levels with the Kilbrittain club. He also lined out as a schoolboy with St. Finbarr's College and was a substitute on their Harty Cup and All-Ireland-winning team in 1984.[1] O'Connell was just 16-years-old when he joined Kilbrittain's adult team and was a member of their Cork JAHC title-winning team in 1985. A decade later, he captained the team to the Cork IHC title after winning a Cork SHC title with Carbery the previous year.[2][3]
O'Connell first appeared on the inter-county scene as a non-playing substitute on the Cork minor hurling team that won the All-Ireland MHC title in 1985.[4] He later won an All-Ireland U21HC title with the under-21 team.[5] O'Connell was drafted onto the Cork senior hurling team during the early stage of the 1988-89 National League. He subsequently joined the junior team and won an All-Ireland medal in that grade in 1994.[6] O'Connell was recalled to the Cork senior team for the 1995-96 National League.
