Born in Waterford, Ware first played competitive hurling during his schooldays at De La Salle College. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty-one when he made his senior debut in the 1954-55 National Hurling League. Ware went on to play for Waterford for much of the next decade, and won one All-Ireland medal as a non-playing substitute and one Munster medals.[3]
At club level Ware won one championship medal with Erin's Own.[citation needed][4]
His retirement came following Waterford's defeat by Kilkenny in the 1963 championship.[citation needed]
