Career

[edit]

A member of the Faughs club in Templeogue, Bennett first came to prominence on the inter-county scene during a three-year tenure with the Dublin minor team.[1] An All-Ireland runner-up in this grade, he later won a Leinster Under-21 Championship medal with the Dublin under-21 team.[2][3] Bennett was straight out of the minor grade when he was drafted onto the Dublin senior hurling team in 2015. His three-year senior career saw him win a Walsh Cup title.
