[3] Blackrock Hurling Club was officially founded in 1883, one year before the foundation of the Gaelic Athletic Association itself.

[1] Blackrock won eight of the first nine Cork Senior Hurling Championship titles and, in the early years of the All-Ireland Championship when the winning clubs represented the county, subsequently claimed the All-Ireland titles for Cork in 1893 and 1894.

[5] Blackrock once again claimed the All-Ireland hurling title for Cork in 1903, and were such a dominant force in Cork hurling that up until the 1930s, that many Blackrock players made up the county team in that period.

[7] Blackrock's most recent Senior County Championship was in 2020 when they defeated Glen Rovers in the final.

[citation needed] This is a list of Blackrock players that have had championship successes with the club, or have played for the Cork senior hurling team.
