Born in Blackrock, Cork, Creagh first played competitive Gaelic games during his schooling at Coláiste Iognáid Rís. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of seventeen when he first linked up with the Cork minor hurling team, before later becoming a dual player at under-21 level. He made his senior football debut during the 1980-81 National Football League. Creagh only played for one season, winning one National Football League medal.
At club level Creagh was a one-time All-Ireland medallist with Blackrock. In addition to this he also won three Munster medals and six championship medals.
