James Ryan (born 7 April 1987) is an Irish hurler who plays as a centre-forward for the Limerick senior teams.

Born in Garryspillane, County Limerick, Ryan arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of eighteen when he first linked up with the Limerick minor hurling team, before later lining out with the under-21 side. He made his senior debut in the 2008 National Hurling League. Ryan has since gone on to play a key part for Limerick, and has won one Munster medal and one National League (Division 2) medal.[1][2] He was also a regular member of the Limerick Gaelic football team for a number of seasons.[citation needed]

Ryan was named as the Man of the Match in 2013 Munster Senior Hurling Championship Final as Limerick defeated Cork by 0-24 to 0-15 with Ryan scoring three points during the game.[3]

At club level Ryan has won one championship medal with Garryspillane.[citation needed]
