Shefflin first appeared on the inter-county scene as captain of the Kilkenny minor hurling team that lost the 1998 All-Ireland minor final to Cork. He later joined the under-21 team and made a number of appearances for the Kilkenny senior hurling team in pre-season tournaments. Personal life and death
Shefflin's brothers, John and Tommy, won All-Ireland medals in the minor and under-21 grades. A third brother, Henry Shefflin, won a record ten All-Ireland medals at senior level.
