Carbery GAA are a divisional team from the south-west division of County Cork, Ireland. They compete in the Cork Senior Football Championship and Cork Senior Hurling Championships. The divisional board organizes local championships up to the level of Junior, and the winners of these championships in many cases proceed to compete to play in the championships organized by the County Board.

The division consists of 26 clubs from Bandon in the east to Bantry Blues in the west.

The division fields teams in both the Cork Senior Football Championship and Cork Senior Hurling Championship. Players are chosen from all junior and intermediate teams in the division. Usually there are a number of clubs in the division playing in the senior football grade, so these players can not be chosen.
