Brian Campion (born 1984) is an Irish hurler who played as a goalkeeper, corner-back, full-back, wing-back and centre-back for the Laois senior team.

Born in Rathdowney, County Laois, Campion first played competitive hurling during his schooling at St. Fergal's College. He arrived on the inter-county scene as a member of the minor team before later joining the under-21 side. He made his senior debut during the 2005 championship. Campion immediately became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won one National League (Division 2) medal.[citation needed]

At international level Campion played for the composite rules shinty-hurling team at under-21 level in 2005.[1] He was a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, however, he never won a Railway Cup medal. At club level Campion is a three-time championship medallist with Rathdowney–Errill.[citation needed]

Throughout his career Campion made 28 championship appearances. He announced his retirement from inter-county hurling on 12 January 2015.[2][3][4]
