John O'Flynn (born 1936) is an Irish former Gaelic footballer. He played with club side Kilshannig, divisional side Avondhu and at inter-county level with the Cork senior football team.[1]
O'Flynn first enjoyed success as a Gaelic footballer as a member of the Mallow Vocational School team that won the Cork County Vocational Schools' Championship in 1952.[2] He later lined out with Kilshannig and was part of the team that won the club's inaugural North Cork JAFC title in 1959, before winning a further three divisional titles in 1965, 1967 and 1968.[3] O'Flynn also lined out with divisional side Avondhu and won a Cork SFC title in 1961.[4]
O'Flynn's success at club level earned a call-up to the Cork junior football team in 1960. He was promoted to the senior team a year later and captained Cork in the 1962 Munster SFC. O'Flynn's four-year senior career featured four successive Munster SFC final defeats by Kerry, while he also earned selection with the Munster team in the Railway Cup.[5] [6] He ended his inter-county career by winning a Munster JFC medal in 1966.[7]
