With the Irish sevens team he generally plays at centre, but can also fill in at fly-half. O'Brien played for Ireland at the 2018 Hong Kong Sevens qualifier, scoring four tries, but Ireland lost to Japan 7–12 in the semifinal and consequently failed to qualify as a core team for the 2018-19 World Series.[3] O'Brien played for Ireland on the London and Paris legs of the 2017-18 World Rugby Sevens Series; in those tournaments, despite its non-core status, Ireland surprised by finishing third and seventh respectively, with O'Brien scoring four tries across the two tournaments.[4] O'Brien was born in Eadestown in County Kildare, Ireland. He played in his school rugby with Newbridge College. Although he played fly-half at school, he has moved to inside centre with the Leinster academy. His strengths in attack include a good kicking game, footwork, and passing, while in defence despite his lack of size he has a physical approach.[5] References1. ^Ireland squad profiles – Jimmy O'Brien {{Rugbyunion-bio-stub}}{{DEFAULTSORT:OBrien, Jimmy}}2. ^Ireland squad profiles – Jimmy O'Brien 3. ^[https://www.scmp.com/sport/rugby/hk-sevens/article/2140653/ireland-eyeing-route-one-elite-club-world-sevens "Resurgent Ireland eyeing route one to elite club of Sevens World Series"], South China Morning Post, Navzi Careem, 6 April 2018. 4. ^[https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/15/sport/ireland-rugby-sevens-world-series-paris-london-jimmy-obrien-jordan-conway-brian-odriscoll-spt-intl/index.html "Ireland learning to love rugby sevens after 'amazing' run"], CNN, George Ramsay, 15 June 2018. 5. ^[https://www.independent.ie/sport/rugby/leinster-rugby/six-leinster-academy-stars-who-are-on-course-to-make-their-mark-for-leo-cullens-side-36527543.html "Six Leinster academy stars who are on course to make their mark for Leo Cullen's side"], Independent, 19 July 2018. 7 : 1996 births|Living people|Rugby union players from County Kildare|Irish rugby union players|Ireland international rugby sevens players|Leinster Rugby players|University College Dublin R.F.C. players |
