He made his first impression on the inter-county scene when he joined the Limerick senior team during a golden age between 1918 and 1923. Rochford went on to play a key role for Limerick for a brief period, and won one All-Ireland medal and one Munster medal.[1]

At club level he was a four-time championship medallist with Claughaun.
