Joe Power (born 1883) was an Irish hurler who played as a midfielder for the Clare senior team.[1]

Power made his first appearance for the team around 1908 and became a regular player over the next decade. During that time he won one All-Ireland winner's medal and one Leinster winner's medal.[2][3] His brother, Amby Power, was captain for those two victories.

At club level, Power played with Tulla and Carrahan and won two county championship winners' medals in a career that spanned the first two decades of the 20th century.
