Playing career

The North Monastery

Ryan first came to prominence as a hurler with the

North Monastery. Having played at every grade, by 1994 he was a forward on the college's senior team that defeated Midleton CBS by 1–09 to 0–04 in the Harty Cup final.[2] On 24 April 1994, Ryan won an All-Ireland medal following a 1–10 to 1–06 defeat of St Mary's College from Galway.[3]

Sarsfields

Ryan joined the

Blackrock
on 10 June 1995.

On 5 October 1997, Ryan lined out at midfield in his first senior championship final. In spite of being the game's top scorer with 1-07, Ryan's side were beaten by Imokilly by 1–18 to 2-12.[4] He finished the championship as the top scorer with 1-47.

On 28 September 2008, Ryan was once again at midfield when Sarsfields qualified for the championship final. He scored six points in a 2–14 to 2–13 defeat of

championship medal.[5]

After losing the 2009 final to Newrtownshandrum, Sarsfields were back in a third successive decider on 10 October 2010.[6] Ryan was introduced as a late substitute in the 1–17 to 0–18 defeat of Glen Rovers.[7]

Cork

Under-21

Ryan made his first appearance for the Cork under-21 team on 18 July 1996, replacing

Munster Championship semi-final defeat of Tipperary at Páirc Uí Chaoimh. He was an unused substitute when Cork won the subsequent Munster final following a 3–16 to 2–07 defeat of Clare.[citation needed
]

Ryan became a regular member of the starting fifteen for the

man of the match after Cork defeated Galway by 3–11 to 0–13 in the final.[citation needed
]

Senior

On 20 November 1997, Ryan made his senior debut for Cork in a 2–15 to 0–15 defeat of Waterford in the Oireachtas Cup before becoming a regular member of the team during the 1998 National League. On 17 May 1998, he won a National League medal after Cork's 2–14 to 0–13 defeat of Waterford.[8] Ryan made his championship debut at midfield on 31 May 1998 in a 1–20 to 3-11 Munster Championship quarter-final defeat of Limerick.

After making a number of appearances in Cork's unsuccessful National League campaign in 1999, Ryan was dropped from the starting fifteen for the Munster Championship. On 4 July 1999, he was introduced as a substitute in Cork's 1–15 to 0-14 Munster final defeat of Clare, in what was his only championship appearance of the season. On 12 September 1999, Ryan was an unused substitute when Cork defeated Kilkenny by 0–13 to 0–12 in the All-Ireland final.[9]

In 2000, Ryan was back on the starting fifteen for Cork's first two championship games. He was dropped from the team for the subsequent Munster final on 3 July 2000, however, he was introduced as a substitute and won a second successive Munster medal after a 0–23 to 3–12 defeat of Tipperary.[10]

Blackrock
in a challenge match on 7 January 2003.
