Philip Gorman (born 1983 in Kildare) is an Irish football player who is currently playing with Kildare County F.C. in the Eircom League First Division.

The Kildare native started his career in 2002 with the newly founded club Kildare County under Dermot Keely. He became the first ever player to score for The Thoroughbreds when he netted against Limerick in July 2002 when the two teams met in the First Division Cup.

Gorman went on to have spells at Kilkenny City FC and then at the now defunct Dublin City FC before John Ryan brought him back to Kildare County in June 2006. He was just what the goal shy Kildare County needed at the time. His goals helped to halt the downward spiral that the team seemed to be trapped in.

Gorman has represented Ireland's Military team when they competed for the first time to qualify for the World Military. The games are to be held in India in 2007 [1].
