In 2006 he lined out in his first hurling championship decider. Patrickswell were the opponents, however, a narrow 1-16 to 1-15 victory gave O'Rourke a Limerick Senior Hurling Championship medal. [1]

Inter-county

O'Rourke made his senior debut for Limerick in a National League game against Antrim in 2007. [2] He played a number of games during that campaign and was subsequently included on Limerick's championship panel.

After a number of seasons O'Rourke was recalled to the panel in 2010. He made his championship debut that year in a Munster semi-final defeat by Cork. [3]
