George Christopher Garrett (born 23 December 1908) was an Irish hurler who played as a centre-back for the Cork senior team.

Contents

Born in Cork, Garrett first arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty-two when he joined the Cork senior team for the 1931 championship. Garrett went on to play a key role for Cork in what was a decade-long barren spell for the team, and won one All-Ireland medal.

As a member of the Munster inter-provincial team for five years, Garrett won one Railway Cup medal in 1934. At club level he won three successive championship medals with Blackrock.

Throughout his career Garrett made 12 championship appearances. His retirement came following Cork's defeat by Waterford in the 1938 championship.
