Colm Callanan (born 18 July 1982) is an Irish hurler who plays for Galway Senior Championship club Kinvara.

[4] Callanan joined the Kinvara club at a young age and played in all grades at juvenile and underage levels.

His long-range free in the fifth minute of injury-time was instrumental in setting up the winning goal, with Kinvara claiming a 1-10 to 0-12 victory over Kilconieron.

[7] Callanan was called for a trial with the Galway minor team in March 2000, however, he failed to make the panel for the All-Ireland Championship.

[12] An injury to first-choice goalkeeper James Skehill in advance of the All-Ireland final replay on 30 September 2012 saw Callanan recalled to the panel.

[19] The subsequent championship saw Galway qualify for a Leinster final meeting with Wexford, with Callanan claiming his third winners' medal after the 0-29 to 1-17 victory.

[21][22] Callanan returned to the panel for the 2018 season, however, a series of muscle injuries hampered his progress and he was relegated to third-choice goalkeeper.

[23] Injury ruled him out of Galway's 1-28 to 3-15 defeat of Kilkenny in the Leinster final replay on 8 July 2018, however, he collected a second winners' medal as a member of the extended panel.

[24][25] On 19 August 2018, Callanan was again third-choice goalkeeper and a member of the extended panel when Galway suffered a 3-16 to 2-18 defeat by Limerick in the All-Ireland final.

[26] Callanan made just one appearance in the 2019 National League, however, he was back as Galway's first-choice goalkeeper for the 2019 Leinster Championship and lined out in goal for all four games in their unsuccessful campaign.
