Marty Boyle is an Irish sportsperson. He plays Gaelic football with his local club Naomh Conaill and is a member of the Donegal senior inter-county team.

In 2005, Boyle played for his club in the final of the Donegal Senior Football Championship.[1] He played (and scored) for his club in the final of the 2010 Donegal Senior Football Championship.[2] He then played for his club in the final of the 2015 Donegal Senior Football Championship.[3] His team won all three games.

Boyle received his first Championship start for Donegal in the 2011 Ulster Senior Football Championship quarter-final against Cavan at Breffni Park, with Frank McGlynn absent due to a torn hamstring.[4] In the 2011 All-Ireland football semi-final, Dublin player Diarmuid Connolly punched Boyle in the face and then grabbed him by the throat; Connolly was red carded as a result.[5] Boyle sat on the bench during Donegal's 2012 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final win.[6]
