Curtin was the Dublin hurling captain for 2005. [1] David was named on the 2006 Dublin Bus/Evening Herald Blue Star hurling XV at Centre Forward. [2] Curtin won his first Dublin Senior Hurling Championship medal with his club Ballyboden St Endas in October 2007. Since then Boden have won 4 titles in a row.
