John Considine (born 26 October 1964) is an Irish retired hurler who played as a right corner-back for the Cork senior team.
Born in Glanmire, Cork, Considine first played competitive hurling during his schooling at Sullivan's Quay CBS. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty-one when he first linked up with the Cork under-21 team. He joined the senior panel during the 1988 championship. Considine subsequently became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won one All-Ireland medal, one Munster medal and one National Hurling League medal.
At club level Considine played with Sarsfield's.
Throughout his career Considine made 8 championship appearances. His retirement came following the conclusion of the 1993 championship.
In retirement from playing Considine became involved in team management and coaching. After being heavily involved in coaching at University College Cork, he later took charge as manager of the Cork minor, under-21 and senior teams.
In 1987 Considine was at left wing-back on the University College Cork team that reached the final of the inert-varsities championship. Fierce rivals University College Dublin provided the opposition, however, a narrow 1-11 to 0-11 victory gave Considine a first Fitzgibbon Cup medal.
Considine was included on the University College Cork team once again in 1988. A convincing 1-14 to 1-3 defeat of University College Galway secured a remarkable eight successive title for UCC and a second successive Fitzgibbon Cup medal for Considine.
