Leo Galvin is an Irish former international rugby union player.

Galvin is a native of Taughmaconnell, County Roscommon, and was educated at Garbally College in Ballinasloe.

A second-rower, Galvin played his senior rugby with University College Dublin, Athlone and Connacht.

Galvin played once Ireland, when Argentina visited Dublin in 1973, but the match wasn't considered a full international until the IRFU retrospectively awarded him a cap 50-years later. This made him the first player from County Roscommon to make a capped appearance for Ireland.
