Playing career
Club
Queally plays his club hurling with his local club Newtown-Ballydurn GAA in Waterford.[2] The club presently participates at Junior level. Due to his profession as a Garda, Queally was stationed in Cork City for a number of years. Because of this, Queally also had a stint playing for Sarsfields GAA of Glanmire in the Cork Senior Hurling Championship in the late 1990s.
Inter-county
Queally had a long playing career with the Waterford Senior Hurling Team from the early 1990s up to 2003.[1] During his playing career, Queally played in several Munster Senior Hurling Finals, winning the Munster Championship in 2002. Queally retired from inter-county hurling in 2003.[1] In 2008 Queally returned to the inter-county setup in the role of selector,[1] alongside Davy Fitzgerald and Maurice Geary. With Queally on board, Waterford managed to reach their first All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship Final since 1963. Sadly, it wasn't to be a fairy tale ending, with Waterford losing out to Kilkenny in the final.
