He was a fringe member of the inter-county hurling team during the 'golden age' of the 1990s and collected an [All-Ireland](/source/All-Ireland_Senior_Hurling_Championship) title as a substitute in 1998.[citation needed]

Shortly after his inter-county retirement, Farrell became involved in team management and coaching. He took charge of the [Na Fianna](/source/Na_Fianna_GAA_(Meath)) hurling team in Meath for three years and restored some pride to the perennial relegation candidates. Farrell was appointed manager of the Meath senior hurling team in October 2010.[1] He stepped down from the position on 2 June 2013 after a 0-23 to 1-10 defeat to [Down](/source/Down_GAA), however, he returned to the position later that year.[2][3]
