Michael Rochford (born 1890) was an Irish hurler who played as a right corner-back for the Limerick senior team.
Born in Limerick, Rochford first played competitive hurling in his youth. He made his first impression on the inter-county scene when he joined the Limerick senior team during a golden age between 1918 and 1923. Rochford went on to play a key role for Limerick for a brief period, and won one All-Ireland medal and one Munster medal.[1]
At club level he was a four-time championship medallist with Claughaun.
