[edit]

Corby first played hurling at juvenile and underage levels with the Clough–Ballacolla club. He progressed to adult level and won his first Laois SHC title after a defeat of Camross in 2015.[1] Corby was also part of the Clough–Ballacolla team that won three successive Laois SHC titles between 2020 and 2022.[2] He won a fifth SHC title as team captain in 2024.[3]

At inter-county level, Corby first played for Laois during a two-year tenure with the Minor team in 2013 and 2014. He later spent two years with the under-21 team but ended his underage career without success. Coby made his senior team debut during the 2016 Walsh Cup, was on and off the team over the following few years.[4] He won his first silverware in 2024 when Laois claimed the National League Division 2A title. Corby was at midfield when Offaly beat Laois in the 2024 Joe McDonagh Cup final.[5] He ended the season by being named on the Team of the Year.[6]
