David Collins was born in County Galway in 1984. He plays his hurling locally with the Liam Mellows GAA club and plays inter-county hurling with Galway. A key member of the Galway senior hurling panel, Collins has a National Hurling League and All-Ireland Under-21 winners medals to his name. He played a crucial role for the Tribesmen in 2005 helping them to the All-Ireland Hurling Final, however, a runners-up medal was all he got on that occasion.
