Thurles Sarsfields is a Tipperary GAA club which is located in County Tipperary, Ireland. Both hurling and Gaelic football are played in the "Mid-Tipperary" divisional competitions. The club is centred on the town of Thurles. The club was founded in 1881 and is the most honoured club in the history of the county championship with 33 County Titles.

On 19 October 2009, Sarsfields captured their 30th Tipperary Senior Hurling Championship, defeating neighbours Drom ’n Inch at Semple Stadium by 0-14 to 0-5. They went on to play Newtownshandrum in the Munster hurling championship quarter-final on 1 November 2009, losing by 1-15 to 0-19 points. On 31 October 2010, Sarsfields captured their 31st Tipperary Senior Hurling Championship after a 1-16 to 1-7 win against Clonoulty-Rossmore. They subsequently contested the Munster Club hurling final only to suffer heartbreaking defeat, losing to De La Salle of Waterford. Led by hurler of the year 2010 Lar Corbett, Thurles Sars' looked to be the superior side throughout much of the game but substandard shooting on the day ultimately cost them and resulted in the side losing by the narrowest of margins at Cork on a scoreline of 0-9 to 0-8.

On 25 November 2012, Thurles won their first ever Munster GAA Senior Club Hurling Championship after a 1-21 to 1-16 victory over De La Salle in the final at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

This means players that have enjoyed much success with the club or have played for the Tipperary senior hurling team.
