Peadar N. Quealy (born 1956) is an Irish former hurler. At club level he played with Roscrea and was also a member of the Tipperary senior hurling team.[2]
Quealy first played hurling at juvenile and underage levels with Roscrea and won a divisional minor title in 1974. He also lined out as a Gaelic footballer with Inane Rovers and won a Tipperary U21AFC title in 1977. As a student at University College Dublin Quealy was called-up to the college hurling team and won a Fitzgibbon Cup medal in 1979.[3] By this stage he had already joined the Roscrea senior team and won a Tipperary SHC title in 1980.[4] Quealy also won two North Tipperary SHC titles, including one as team captain.
Quealy first played for Tipperary during a two-year tenure as a dual player at minor level in 1973 and 1974. He continued his dual status to under-21 level, however, his underage career ended without any silverware. Queally was drafted onto the Tipperary senior hurling team in 1977 and won a National League medal in 1979.[5] He served as team captain in 1981.[6]
