Pa "Fowler" McInerney (14 December 1893 – 15 January 1987) was an Irish hurler who played as a goalkeeper and full-back for the Clare and Dublin senior teams.
McInerney represented the Leinster inter-provincial team at various times throughout his career, winning one Railway Cup medal.
A move to Dublin saw McInerney join the Garda club which enjoyed an unprecedented run of success in the late twenties.
In 1918 McInerney's side faced another humiliating Munster final defeat, this time when Limerick triumphed by 11–3 to 1–2.
In 1930 McInerney's Dublin renewed their rivalry with Cork, this time in the final of the National Hurling League.
Goals at the end of the first half from Martin Kennedy and John Joe Callanan gave Tipp a platform to secure a 2–7 to 1–3 victory.
These goals were negated by Kilkenny's three goal-scoring heroes Matty Power, Martin White and Lory Meagher.
McInerney's inter-county performances ensured his selection on the inaugural Leinster team for the inter-provincial championship.
In 2004 McInerney was chosen as full-back on a special all-time hurling team made up of members of the Garda Síochána.
