Richard Kissane (1868-?) was an Irish hurler who played for the Kerry senior team.

Kissane was a regular member of the starting twenty-one during Kerry's most successful hurling period shortly after the foundation of the Gaelic Athletic Association and the start of the inter-county championship. During his career he won one All-Ireland medal and one Munster medal.[1][2]

At club level Kissane was a one-time county club championship medalist with Ballyduff.[citation needed]
