On 13 October 2013, Cooper was captain of the Youghal team that defeated Castlelyons by 0–11 to 0–10 in the premier intermediate championship final.[2] He later won a Munster medal after scoring two points in Youghal's 2–13 to 2–10 defeat of Ballina.[3]
Cork
Intermediate
Cooper first played for Cork at intermediate level on 30 May 2010 when he came on as a substitute in a Munster Championship quarter-final defeat of Tipperary.[4] By the end of the provincial championship, Cooper had established himself as the team's first-choice centre-forward, winning a Munster medal after a two-point defeat of Waterford.[5] On 28 August 2010, Cooper scored three points from play in Cork's 2–17 to 1–13 defeat by Kilkenny in the All-Ireland final.[6]
Senior
Cooper made his senior debut for Cork on 27 March 2011, replacing Cian McCarthy for the final 4 minutes of a National League game against Tipperary at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.[7] He made his first championship appearance in an All-Ireland Qualifier on 18 June 2011 and scored 1-03 from play in a 10–20 to 1–13 defeat of Laois.[8] Cooper missed the following two seasons due to a disc problem in his back but returned to the panel after a 14-month layoff.[9] On 13 July 2014, he won his first Munster medal after a six-point defeat of Limerick in the final.[10]
Over the following seasons, Cooper established himself as a key member of Cork's starting fifteen. On 9 July 2017, he won his second Munster medal following a 1–25 to 1–20 defeat of Clare in the final.[11]
