Peter Kelleher (born 12 October 1995) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who plays as a full-forward for the Cork senior team [1]
Born in Kilmichael, County Cork, Kelleher first played competitive Gaelic football and hurling at the De La Salle College in Macroom. Here he played in two Corn Uí Mhuirí finals, however, he ended up on the losing side on both occasions. Kelleher first appeared for the Kilmichael club at underage levels, before winning a Mid Cork Junior Football Championship medal in 2013.
