Between 1994 and 2007, White was part of three West Cork JAHC title-winning teams. He added a Cork JAHC medal to his collection in 2007 after a 2–19 to 2–13 defeat of Charleville in the final.[1][2] White also earned selection for Carbery and won a Cork SHC medal after lining out with the team in their 3–13 to 3–06 win over Midleton in the 1996 final.[3][4]
At inter-county level, White first appeared for Cork at minor level in 1990.
