Christopher "Christy" Forde (21 December 1903 – 20 November 1959) was an Irish hurler who played as a goalkeeper for the Dublin and Tipperary senior teams.

Forde made his first appearance for the Dublin team during the 1933 championship and was a regular member of the starting fifteen until his retirement after the 1940 championship. During that time he won one All-Ireland medal, two Leinster medals and one National Hurling League medal.[1][2]

At club level Forde began his career with Lorrha–Dorrha before later playing club hurling in Dublin.[citation needed]
